No auto-mount after upgrade
Not really sure what went wrong, so I can't really give you guys much info. I just upgraded my system, Debian Testing, and now my removable drives won't automount. Everything is correctly identified, and I can mount the drives using "pmount", but I would really like it to be like before, where it litterally auto-mount without me having to do anything.
I'm pretty good at fixing this stuff by myself, but I don't really know where to start with this.

I would check your /etc/fstab and look for any entry "noauto" in your removable media sections. Comment this out.
All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer. All New Users Read This!!! If you have a grub problem please look at GRUB MANUAL

hi,
do you still have the automount daemon running.You might have lost the package during upgrade.

The thing is that I've never had automount installed in the first place. But while looking through that I noticed that gnome-volume-manger wasn't installed, so I reinstalled it.
