+ Even after enabling udisks2, volume management might not work. Thunar and/or
+ the desktop takes time to show up. Thunar will spit out this kind of message
+ on start (look at <command>journalctl --user -b</command>).

+Thunar:2410): GVFS-RemoteVolumeMonitor-WARNING **: remote volume monitor with dbus name org.gtk.Private.UDisks2VolumeMonitor is not supported
+</programlisting>
+ This is caused by some needed GNOME services not running. This is all fixed
+ by enabling "Launch GNOME services on startup" in the Advanced tab of the
+ Session and Startup settings panel. Alternatively, you can run this command
+ to do the same thing.

+ A log-out and re-log will be needed for this to take effect.
