Automounting of USB 4630

Morris poked his little head through the XP firewall and said:

You are a complete idiot. Every major distro now supports the same lame-brain usage of USB that that lame-brained OS, XP supports.

That was a choice I deliberately avoided when I installed gentoo (and debian).

But now, I want partial automation of the mount.

Not the full, intrusive "automation" of XP USB, where, when you plug in your dongle, you have to wait while "Windows is finding a driver for your device" and "Windows has loaded the driver for your device" -- and this happens everytime you plug in a dongle that is a different brand -- how f***ed-up is that? -- and, once you have access to the device, another freaking unwanted explorer Window pops up, and, finally, when you want to stop using the device, you not only have to request the unmount, just like in Linux, but you have acknowledge that it is "now safe to unplug your device."

Even if you weren't completely mistaken about Linux USB support (where have you been lately, pulling a Rip van Wrinkle or a year-long "lost weekend"?), Linux would not be doomed, as its manifest progress on practically all computer fronts well indicates.

The expostulations of an obvious out-of-touch doofus such as yourself are mere ravings.

However, we do note that you like to be treated like an infant as you use your operating system.

Are you some kind of 8-year-old prodigy, perhaps?

Then stick with the program.
