If the DE is doing the mounting, it has to be running, even in the 
background.  Try booting, moving to a CLI and logging in there, so that 
X isn't active, and inserting a drive.  I'm sure it will be detected, 
but I don't honestly know if it will be automounted or if that only 
happens when your DE activates.
