I confirm this bug. I am using Herd 1 fully updated from main server. All partitions are mounted but none of the icons appear in the desktop until I restart dbus.
I have to manually mount CD-ROM. After restart dbus, the CD-ROM is mounted when I click on its icon in Nautilus. Thumb drive is not mounted at all even after restart dbus. Also, after I restart dbus, all applets remain except the power- management applet. -- [feisty] some partitions do not appear in Places menu https://launchpad.net/bugs/73227 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
