A GUI is not necessary. Every time a USB device is inserted or removed,
an event is triggered by the kernel. What's required is
an event handler that reacts appropriately to those events.

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

When I need to mount a removable USB device on LXDE (~amd64) I currently

According to LXDE wiki (1) you need HAL, which I don't have on my
system. I found several suggestions on the net but none seems promising.
