Usb-storage works mostly automatic on Mandrake. Modules get loaded by hotplug,
and an icon appears on the desktop (kde/gnome) to mount it manual. 
I myself don't use a desktop, so I set it up with supermount. It seemed to
work fine for me that way. Maybe supermount (or autofs) can be used by default
for usb-storage? Or is that not such a good idea?
