I'd like to understand how this works, because my CDRW does exactly what you want - I have no icon if the drive isn't in its bay, an unmounted Icon most of the time, and a mounted icon when it's actually in use. I got that behaviour entirely accidentally. The unmounted floppy icon is _always_ on the desktop, even though it shares the bay with the CDRW, so at most one of them should be on my desktop. -- derek
