Thanks for your responses. I'm sorry I forgot to mention that I do

xfce4-mount-plugin installed.
box0=; equery list '*xfce*'|grep mount
xfce-extra/xfce4-mount-plugin-0.6.4
But I still can't auto-mount my removable drives. So I thought that
perhaps some further configuration had to be done. That question still
remains, how do I do it?
Thanks.
hi,
you need to emerge just one package: xfce-extra/thunar-volman (it
may pull some dependencies); it
does what you asked for

Thanks for your response. To save further confusion, which is something
I should have done right from the word go, here's a list of all the xfce
packages I have installed on my system:

xfce-base/thunar needs to have USE="udev" enabled and
xfce-extra/thunar-volman must be installed
i don't see thunar-volman in your list there
futhermore authorization from polkit/consolekit must be working, so
you must see 'active = TRUE' line when you run `ck-list-sessions` in your
Xfce's Terminal as a normal user, see this thread (first post of it):
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-858965-start-0.html
and like said, xfce4-mount-plugin is irrelevant, and `mount` command
shouldn't be used at all for udisks maintained removable devices,
instead `udisksctl mount` should be used as a normal user if you
really want to mount from commandline
Thanks.
thunar/thunar-valman seem to be installed on my system as well:
equery list '*thunar*'
* Searching for *thunar* ...
[IP-] [ ] xfce-base/thunar-1.6.2:0
[IP-] [ ] xfce-extra/thunar-volman-0.8.0:0
'ck-list-sessions' when run as a regular user returns:
** Message: Failed to connect to the D-Bus daemon: Failed to connect to
socket /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
The post covers also this, it looks like you have forgot to add 'dbus'
and 'consolekit' to the runlevels:
# rc-update add consolekit default
# rc-update add dbus default
# /etc/init.d/consolekit start
That will start dbus and ConsoleKit on boot as required, the system
instances.
Then there is the user instances, also covered by the post. For example,
running Xfce using `startx` from text console:
~/.xinitrc file in your home directory has the content of:
exec startxfce4 --with-ck-launch
And then you can run
$ startx
But like said, this is all covered by the forums post. It's like a
checklist.
