I've finally managed to allow my user to mount and unmount removeable media like mediacards and cds. Still, I have to issues i need some help with:

1.
When ejecting my cd, the cd-folder /media/cdrom disappears, as it should. My mediacard-folder doesn't. I usually just remove it manually, because there isn't any option to unmount it in nautilus. It seems that this is the intended behaviour. But then, when the mediacard is unmounted, the folder in which it used to be - /media/SAN-VOL - changes permissions (-w), and it won't go away. I can't even delete it, because of the permission-alteration.

2. When clicking on the cdrom icon in "my computer" i mount the cdrom repeatedly, and get multiple /media/cdrom-# directories. This bothers me, and doesn't seem intentional from gnomes part.

<edit>
Yeah, and I never get icons on the desktop like I thought I was supposed to.
</edit>
Code:

[ebuild   R   ] gnome-base/gnome-volume-manager-1.5.15-r1
[ebuild   R   ] sys-apps/hal-0.5.7-r2
[ebuild   R   ] sys-apps/dbus-0.61-r1
[ebuild   R   ] sys-fs/udev-087



The folder does in fact change ownership from my user to root the moment I unplug the mediacard. Is this some udev-issue, and how could I change that?

When the volume is mounted it has: owner = user, group = root
When it's unplugged it has: owner = root, group = root

I have found that the /media folder will reset and delete old folders only when restarted. And gurus around here have a trick up their sleeve for solving this one?

Code:

$ls while mounted:
drwxr-xr-x  3 acinonyx 4294967295  92 2006-05-11 16:02 Brennemappe/
drwxr-xr-x  6 acinonyx root       16K 1970-01-01 01:00 SANVOL/

$ls after SANVOL is unmounted :
drwxr-xr-x  3 acinonyx 4294967295  92 2006-05-11 16:02 Brennemappe/
drwxr-xr-x  2 root     root        80 2006-06-09 13:16 SANVOL/




Code:

$mount :
/dev/mmcblk0p1 on /media/SANVOL type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,shortname=winnt,uid=1000)
/dev/hdc on /media/Brennemappe type udf (ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000)
