Is there a particular reason why Supermount couldn't be included in the 
debian unstable kernels as an option? It works brilliantly on Mandrake, and 
makes things much easier to use. Thanks,

David

Why can't it be included *ONLY AS AN OPTION*? automount is totally 
insufficient compared to the supermount patch. Or is there some other patch 
that has equal functionality for mounting removable media immediately when it 
is put in and then umounting it when ejected? Thanks,

Well can the debconf for automount please make it easy to configure it that 
way? The default config doesn't do anything like it, and the documentation is 
not clear on setting it up. Everyone runs around saying they want to make 
Debian easy for the new users, but nobody ever seems to want to do anything 
about it. Thanks,
