Ok, solved. Thunar REQUIRES hald to be running, for thunar-volman to work. Needs "sudo /usr/sbin/hald &" to be executed. Now pen-drives, SD cards and others automount and show fine in thunar.

Now, how to automate this? Easiest would be to grant rights for user to sudo hald without password prompt and run it for example in fluxbox startup script? Or do we have better ideas? Some cron trick?
