Currently I'm running Arch x86_64 on Samsung R20+ laptop. Desktop - Openbox as the WM and PCManFM as FM, when inserting a CD/DVD in the TS-L632H drive, it doesn't appear in Side Pane, nor in PCManFM nor Thunar. When I restart HAL and Dbus services, somehow magically the Disc appears in the Side Pane and I don't know why. I also tried pmount - no result, still the CD/DVD isn't mounted. Only when I add a line in /etc/fstab it mounts.

The hal wiki is incomplete ( kde or gnome oriented )
One have to insure that the WM session est managed by dbus
for instance , with fvwm , start the session with 'dbus-launch fvwm' instead of 'exec fvwm'

I'll mark it as fixed
I reinstalled Arch64 with the same setup, followed the HAL wiki entry, commented both cdrom and dvd entries and fstab and everything works as it should with PCManFM.
Thanks for your help drew and enkidu
