Hardware Application Layer doesn't do anything other than inform the kernel about hardware presence. It doesn't mount/umount anything. G-V-M (gnome-volume-manager) is the likely culprit. IMO, a step backwards from magicdev, but supposedly better for hotplug USB devices. None of which I'd own to begin with. You might run 'gnome-volume-properties' (as user an root) an see if the options suit you.
2. The menu editor is defunct. Have to run "update-menus -v -n" every time I add an application.
Menus are now XDG. Supposedly WM apathethic. With 10.2 it most often worked that compliant packages were added, sometimes took a minute or so, sometimes a log out/in (KDE).
On the other hand, it's the first time in all my Mandrake years that I have sound without editing lots of files. All in all a great improvement from 10.1 (my worst Mandrake ever).

Probly due to HAL, G-V-M, an D-bus
But what do I know ;) Cooker is already man'dree'vah 2006, KDE 3.4 So far so good ~ $ cat /etc/mandriva-release Mandriva release 2006 (Cooker) for i586
Y'all need to catch up ;)
Thanks, Tom. What package is G-V-M ???
Kaj Haulrich.
gnome-volume-manager-1.0.3-6mdk
My shorthand for 'gnome-volume-manager', the replacement for magicdev. Run 'gnome-volume-properties' to see what your defaults are set to. When g-v-m first hit cooker some time back, the defaults certainly wouldn't be my choices. Actually g-v-m would'nta been. I was happier with magicdev
