Hi,

if you want/don't want Automount for your drives:

Ubuntu 11.04 and below using gconf editor:

Press Alt + F2 and type "gconf-editor" and then check: > apps > nautilus > preferences > "media_automount" and "media_automount_open" are enabled.

Ubuntu 11.10 and above with dconf editor:

Press Alt + F2 and type "dconf-editor" and then check: > org > gnome > desktop > media-handling.

Dconf editor (the package "dconf-tools" must be installed) is the newer configuration editor for Gnome!!.

Regards Wolfman :D
