Anyway, you're right, it does appear to be the same issue > I'm having. It seems to me, however, that we do not know if this message is really related to your problem, since you never tried to run pmount-hal yourself before thunar started acting up (if I understand you correctly). Maybe it is still worthwhile to check a few elementary things: What happens if a newly-created user with clean xfce and thunar profiles runs the xfce session and a USB stick is plugged in? If things still go wrong, is there anything interesting logged in ~/.xsession-errors? -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
