Nautilus launches when USB drives inserted

I have been having a problem where Nautilus launches when USB drives are inserted. I figured out how to disable this option in gconf-editor. I set volume_manager autobrowse to Off. I was looking at how I could change the autobrowse command to Thunar. I actually looked through the source code for volume-manager and found:

#define NAUTILUS_COMMAND "/usr/bin/nautilus -n --no-desktop %m"

Ugh, it is currently hard coded! It looks like a patch will have to be supplied to fix this problem for XFCE4 and other DEs.

Re: Nautilus launches when USB drives inserted

Why don't you disable Nautilus and install thunar-volman and run thunar as a daemon on desktop startup?
