[SOLVED]Udev: How to easily automount usb/storage devices?...

Hello there everyone, first time posting here.

So as for my question, I recently finished up my preferred install for arch but I have just one problem. Can't seem to get Udev working right.

Before I was using debian with the same Udev automount rules posted in the wiki actually. Then I tried the same ones migrating to arch but they don't seem to work. After searching for my netbook, getting the runaround, then searching for an alternative method and getting the same it's getting kind of annoying. So here I am.

I'm running Arch with LXDE and all default DE components(PCmanFM, openbox, etc). I don't have HAL installed, only udisks and udev as PnP support. Any help?

(Also in specific, I was using the second rule in the Udev wiki page. The one with LUKS support)

(Ah, nevermind is was just a tiny bit of a syntax error. A little bit more googling helped me find the answer)

i'll tell you anyway
my choice was autofs (+hal). no volume managers.
it works like a charm with thunar (and pcmanfm too).
