Well I had a play previously and I'm not sure that subfs is all Suse
uses. I mean subfs only handles the mounting and unmounting components,
right? But what about the actual autorun feature itself? Something seems
to be 'listening to the drives' looking for newly inserted media and
then offering to launch the correct application. Are you saying that
sufs handles all of this?
I don't think supermount really is maintained any more - I don't know
why. and it's kind of worrying too that subfs hasn't been updated for a
while either. Somebody should really take useful projects like this up
and try to stop them from falling into obscurity.

as i am interested in looking around for anything that might help
speed
this process up and make it feel a bit snappier. I would just like to
know initially what Suse uses to do this?
I don't know what else there is yet, but I would like to take a look
around and see what I can find.

SUSE uses subfs. Personally I preferred using supermount in the past,
exactly because of the speed in which supermount just does it. But I
don't know of the current status of supermount (was unmaintained for a
while)and I guess this would be quite tricky and foremost very custom to
implement into a SUSE installer?
