Ok Guys, the problem is solved!

If you are Runing Debian Etch after a Netinstall, just use APTITUDE instead of APT-GET to install XFCE!

With this he will install Hal and the others things necessary for mounting devices automaticaly.

I installed RC2 and when I put in a CD an icon appears on the desktop. I'm happy enough with this.

Now to be able to play 2 sounds at once (VLC & flash)

dbus is installed. I'm trying to update to RC2 (using Xubuntu 6.06's beta1 currently)

Is dbus installed on your system? If not, install it and retry.

I'm running Debian Etch with XFCE 4.3.99.1 and the icons show up on the desktop. For access as normal user, I installed pmount, too.

It doesn't show up in thunar either, or the desktop. I tried upgrading to 0.5 RC2, but that didn't help

Does the CD show up in Thunar?

I have a worse problem; the icon on the desktop doesn't showup when I insert a CD. Ivman doesn't seem to do anything either. I have hal up and loaded.

I am using xubuntu 6.06.

Xfce doesn't has a deamon for this (we're working on this). But (as SimonJ already told) Thunar can do this when you setup your fstab properly and run the hal daemon. You can also use ivman.

Yes, it's Thunar and IIRC you need hal when compiling.

Hi folks!

So, I'm Running Debian Etch. I've made a basic install and later installed XFCE and some others applications. But the problems is that XFCE don't recognize any of my removible devices, such as DVD-ROM (with data or video), CD-ROM (with data or audio) and my SD Card. All codecs are installed, I can play videos and musics from my HD.

When I install Gnome as the default desktop environment, everything works fine! Just plug or unplug things and they appear or disappear from desktop!

What could be wrong?

Sorry about my English! I'm from Brazil!
