I have tried both Xffm and Thunar. Thunar really needs a nice set of icons BTW.

Why not work with rox-filer. It can mount directories that are mapped in fstab. It can do desktop icons. It can do everything you want except an explorer like tree (imho I think that a file tree confuses people more then it helps them. Namely because you can only write to /home /tmp and /var/tmp or a mounted drive). It is also stable.

Xffm in SVN provides desktop icons as well, and it's ready now.

I was under the impression you advocated thunar earlier ;)
I think Thunar is the better file manager, yes. ;-) But Daniele seems
to have a project of their own that might benefit from Xffm rather
than reimplement it on their own

well .. not exactly ... my volume manager is not just for xfce but
even for gnome, icewm , fluxbox .... gnome has desktop icons, xfce has
xffm now that can show them (i didn't know ... i didn't even compile
it), but what about fluxbox and icewm? then does xffm shows even
desktop icons when you plug a new device ?
i don't like to use mount but pmount for removable devices ... last
time i tried xffm out it was still using that approach.
