udevil (removable devices manager) udevil is a command line Linux program which mounts and unmounts removable devices without a password, shows device info, and monitors device changes. It can also mount ISO files, nfs://, smb://, ftp://, ssh:// URLs, and tmpfs/ramfs filesystems. udevil is highly configurable, requires no daemon running, and depends only on udev and glib (if it's not clear yet, no polkit needed!). To use it, just prefix a normal mount command with "udevil". It's reccomended for proper autodetection of removable devices to enable kernel polling. You can do it adding this line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local (the value is in milliseconds, higher means slower detection but lower overhead): echo 3000 > /sys/module/block/parameters/events_dfl_poll_msecs zenity is an optional dependency.
