automounts my partitions and then what creates the volume name that is

On January 28, I was doing some playing around with eye-candy on my X

Hi,
I'm looking for a good sticky notes solution.
I use xfce4 as a desktop, but I run both gnome and kde apps when needed.
With a preference for KDE apps.
The xfce notes applet is buggy, crashy and very limited.
Tomboy is a nice application. Except it doesn't do what I'm looking for
