Hi Sergei!

hmm, i did not change anything concerning mtab or the device mounting between 0.4.8 and 0.5.0alpha ;-)

the device is mounted by 

$mount_cmd_1 && $after_mount_cmd; , where $mount_cmd_1 = replace_%m_and_%d ($mount_cmd);

to speak in understandable pseudo programming language.

Upon plugin-start, fstab is read AFAIR, and upon each click ontot the mount-button, the mtab is read so your device should be read and displayed.

You might want to run xfce4-panel from a terminal and view the debugging output if it prints some useful information. As a starting point, I will concentrate on the code which reads mtab.

For y complete understanding:
- your sudo pmount and sudo pumount from the last e-mail worked in a shell?
- you mounted with ivman && sudo pmount from a terminal and the mount-plugin did not show the device afterwards?

I hope I could help you or advise you a little bit in how to investigate further.
Anyway, many thanks for your efforts. I hope, you won't give up ;)

Have a nice evening, Fabian
