How to set up PCMCIA to auto-mount (or updfstab)?

   hotplug now successfully manages USB drives by managing fstab entries 
to create /media mount points (which I believe GNOME/nautilus then 
automounts for you).

   How can I achieve the same thing for a PCMCIA drive on a laptop? 
Messages indicates that /dev/hde1 is successfully attached, but fstab 
doesn't get updated (and even if I add it by hand, nautlius doesn't 
sseem to notice it).

   In fact, now it's in my fstab, it's somehow auto-mounting upon 
insertion, but not umounting upon removal.


   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=135240 may 
apply;  'ide' calls '/sbin/ide_info' upon insertion but that's missing. 
  I don't know what that should do.
