do you know where i can find a .deb package of the latest thunar? in the official debian repository the 0.5.0rc2 is the latest :\

and... exo?? O_o

First upgrade to Thunar 0.8.0 and the latest exo, make sure hal is running (recent version) and remove the entry from the fstab file. Then thunar (and optionally thunar-volman) will manage the (u)mount stuff.

debian testing
xfce 4.3.99.2
thunar 0.5.0rc2
(it's not a new problem btw)

if i connect a usb drive or if i put a cd in the drive, i get the icon on my desktop but i can't mount the device and i get that error. in my fstab everything is correct and i can mount everything with "mount /dev/whatever".

it's a debian related problem? it's already fixed in a newer release and i should wait for an update of the debian packages? or it's something fucked up in my system?

tnx anyway
