usbmount

Someone enlighten me:
how come that usboumt runs ?
how to disable it

ps ax | grep doesn't show it, so how does it get activated once a stick gets plugged?
locate gives:
user@refracta:~$ locate mount | grep usb

Application Menu -> Settings -> Session and Startup -> Application Autostart
un-check USB Watch.

If you want it to go away from that list of applications,
Code:
rm (/)etc/xdg/autostart/USB-watch.desktop


And if you want to see what that desktop file does, look at /usr/local/bin/start-usbwait and /usr/local/bin/usbwait.sh

You might also need to kill inotifywait and usbwait.sh

duh, that was easy.

It doesn't bug me ("if you want it to go away from that list of applications"), i mainly failed to understand why and how it runs. I don't plug devices that often anyway.
I didn't use xfce4 quite long, which might have been the problem.
