I've been running Squeeze on my desktop computer for many weeks and
just today noticed that "Removable Drives and Media" is not available
in the Gnome Preferences menu. It is/was available in Lenny, but not
Squeeze, at least not for me.
Googling indicates this is a known issue, but seems to be ignored as
being somehow uninteresting to GUI users, or something. I can't find
anything that is Debian specific on this.
In Sid/Squeeze, gnome-volume-manager no longer handles automounting of removable
drives. That is directly managed within nautilus/gvfs nowadays.
You can configure this settings in nautilus: Edit->Preferences->Media.
See also the changelog of gnome-volume-manager.
The main purpose of g-v-m in sid/squeeze remains to handle special cases like
handling webcam plugin events and stuff.
HTH,
Michael
