Hello *,

In my /etc/fstab I have

/dev/sdb1               /media/usb      vfat            noauto,user     0 0

(and some similar lines). So, after inserting a usb flash drive, I can say 
(as a normal user, not root)

mount /media/usb

and transfer files in any direction. After that I umount /media/usb.

In lxqt-0.10 (standard Gentoo packages), when I insert a usb flash drive, 
I get a window which asks me to enter the root password. Why is it needed?

If I enter the password, /media/usb is mounted by root; I cannot umount it 
as a normal user, I have to do su and umount it.

If I click Cancel, I get another 2 windows in a quick sequence. Only after 
that I can calmly mount the flash drive as a normal user.

I'd very much prefer lxqt to do nothing when I insert a usb flash drive, a 
memory card, an external hard drive, a book reader, a phone etc. into my 
computer. I have all the necessary lines in etc/fstab, and can mount these 
devices as a normal user. Can I configure lxqt in this way?
