Gnome 2.8 Volume Manager does it properly (it doesn't handle USB properly on
2.6). in Mandrake (not FC), supermount mounts the system and then kded using
FAM puts an icon on your desktop for that.
But the "right way" to do that (according to freedesktop.org) is for
supermount to emit a signal using the system's DBus daemon, and the desktop's
session manager to receive that signal and handle the correct notifications.
unfortunatly AFAIK no one integrates properly with DBus yet (though its
already in some distros and KDE uses DCop which is almos identical).
