Hello,

Can someone refer me to a source that explains how when I plug in a
USB "thumb drive" it appears on my XFCE4 desktop (or any other WM)?
Ideally the answer will use words like:
daemon
hal
udev
policykit
consolekit
/etc/init.d/*
hotplug
gvfs
mount
automount
pmount
gnome-volume-manager
udisks
fstab
mtab

Also, ideally after I know about it I'd like to be able to
"understand" and derive on my own the answer to this question: "is it
possible for TWM to recognize when I plug in a USB thumbdrive and
display it for me to use."

Thank you!

Chris
