That's actually the supermount module doing it's thing.  You can disable
it in /etc/fstab.  I gotta agree with you tho....  It's a great concept,
but waaayyyyy to sensitive.....  It adds a significant amount of time to
the KDE startup on my poor old 550 PIII.

OT:  I have been using RedHat for years now, and just started playing
with Mandrake.....  I only have one thing to say about it....  Fscking
awesome!

I have installed 8.1 on my wife's machine to ease her transistion to
linux, and I just got 8.2 installed on my personal machine.

Keep Up the Great Work!
