in 5.6-alpha it doesn't get refreshed and clicking such an icon invokes pmount.
Ok, thanks. Well This might be something that be can cross checked with Raring (Barry's version and possibly pemasu's). I didn't use eudev because the most stable configuration was with the old udev-167. I did try slackware's udev-182 but it failed for me on one of my test boxes. Good, we have bugs to find!
Raring-5.6.94.iso - the same problem with refreshing of drive icons.
Raring-3.9.8.1-SCSI (pemasu) - ditto.
(tested in VBox)

Ok, played a while on real HW (Acer AO 722) and 5.6-alpha's guts seem to be more friendly for AMD-C60 (inter alia: CPU scaling works OOTB, X takes a bit less resources than in 5.5, but CPU is still hotter (~66°C) than when using proprietary ATI drivers).
Wifi works (ah, and the network tray icon changes its shape at last!), so does microphone, webcam, suspend* mode...
The problem with drive icons is reproducible on real HW as well, btw.
* suspend mode - that's a PITA on that Acer.
Both 5.5-4g and 5.5-PAE do support suspending on it, but after few suspends I've always been encountering ultimate hang, so had to disable it in the end.
We'll see how it will be with 5.6 in the long run, but so far after ~10 suspend/resume cycles nothing bad happened...

Bug? Not a bug?
PupTelly has never worked for me when I choose gnome-mplayer as a preffered player.
Removing the "--g-fatal-warnings" in this line (func):
Code: Select all
if [ "$PLAYER" = "gnome-mplayer" ]; then OPT="--g-fatal-warnings -q" ;fi
makes it running fine, at least for me...
Is this parameter somehow crucial to be there?
Almost forgot:
/root/.xbindkeysrc
PrtScr is binded to a non-existent /usr/bin/mtpaintsnapshot.sh
Maybe just 'mtpaint -s' instead..?

suggestions? (be reasonable)
Not sure if it's reasonable enough...hope I won't cross the line..?
I'm not using xarchive(r) (especially because I don't like when the whole X hangs while opening encrypted .rar or .7z (but this happens only with encrypted filenames (and yes, I know that I'm overusing brackets))), but file-roller instead.
The problem is that either files and directories have the same icons next to them, what's confusing.
This:
Code: Select all
ln -s /usr/share/icons/gnome-fs-directory.png /usr/share/icons/folder.png
solves the problem (spied in one of Pemasu's Pups, but there was a separate icon).
The reason why I'm suggesting this, is that there might be also other apps with this problem, however, to be frank, I've never seen one.

Biggest complaint by everyone else so Joe dropped it! (Personally, I like it too! I'll ask Joe for a patch, have a separate version in the repo.)
I, too, never had nothing against that...

Does Gparted also supposed to handle f2fs?
It has only 'Move' and 'Copy' support for f2fs, but not 'Create'...
Greetings!
