How about Trinity KDE 3.5.11? Yep, it's a good alternative (and a great effort many people is pleased with) but I -and this is just my personal taste- prefer to stick with upstream projects (more eyes behind, easier to manage and integrate...). KDE4 is still a bit inmature for me and in the meantime I already switched to GNOME, so no way back, at least for now.

Gnome automount
Hi, How do I stop gnome automounting a usb hard drive? I ideally need an option, to ask me if I want to mount the drive. This is very annoying when I need to manually mount the drive as read only, as I'm trying to recover data from it. Done some googling on this, and gnome-volume-manager and gconf are both mentioned, but I dont think I use either of those. I'm using Debian Squeeze. Thanks!

Yep, that combo (gnome-volume-manager and gconf) could work. Open gconf editor and browse to apps/nautilus/preferences/, uncheck [ ] media_automount. That should avoid auto-mounting USB disks. Then, you could add an applet to the panel called disk automounter and do it from there.

Ideally all I want is a dialogue to ask me before it automounts. GNOME implements an automount feature in join with udev and automount-fs, I guess. About how to get the dialog prompt before mounting a device, dunno if it is configurable in that way :-? (I barely remember that option was indeed present in KDE 3.5 but those great days are now gone :-P). I get a prompt when inserting some sort of media (camera or cell phone with photos) in oder to perform any action with it but not for mounting it.
