As pointed out before, this was discussed in the other thread: http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/01/msg01916.html KDE 3.4 should automatically use pmount if it is installed properly and your user is a member of the plugdev group. If you have already tried the procedure which I referenced above, then you should say so clearly and provide us with more information about what went wrong. Otherwise it is really difficult to understand what exactly your problem is.

Which program automounts usb devices in KDE so that it is shown mounted in desktop We might have a slight misunderstanding here: Whether or not a device is mounted in the filesystem is not directly related to whether or not an icon is visible on the desktop.

The mounting is then done automatically as soon as you click on the icon, and you can unmount the device again in the icon's right-click menu (safely remove).

If your user is in the group plugdev you can try this yourself from the command line: $ pmount /dev/sda1 usb will mount the device sda1 under /media/usb, and $ pumount usb will unmount it again.
