Description m2j 2009-11-16 13:41:40 UTC
Version:           v0.9 (using 4.3.2 (KDE 4.3.2), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-2-amd64

Today all over KDE the preferred way to mount removable devices is HAL. Often the only listed drives in /etc/fstab are the system, swap and data disk. So IMHO it's necessary to support mounting and unmounting not just by /etc/fstab but also by HAL.
