Disable automount

[mesc]

I would like to disable automount for USB sticks or reconfigure some automount settings. xfc4. It is not Thunar which manages automount.

Any help? No luck with google...

Thank you

Also looking for a solution...

I found this...

But it is not working any more. I also removes the gnome-volume-manager but the automount is still active?!

This works for me....

You need to edit the /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi

and add this...

<device>
<match key="storage.hotpluggable" bool="true">
<match key="storage.removable" bool="true">
<merge key="storage.automount_enabled_hint" type="bool">false</merge>
</match>
</match>
</device>
