I've also thrown Disks away! This is exasperating. 3 different builds with Ubuntu, 2 64bit & 1 32bit and every single one incapable of simply formatting any kind of flash pen (or disk!!!). I miss 12.04 so badly! Also, I had to turn to a Windows system to format & erase my flash pens. Pretty embarrassing. Not only that, you also can't name the volume on the (fruitless) process! Why?
Also, it seems to have become impossible to format a pen right from the Unity sidebar launcher, with a right-click. You can only Unlock from launcher/ Open / Eject; how silly is that? The navigation pane also lost this ability. Why? How come this is not more commented in forums? (Or commented at all?) Solution, proposed by a friend: change to Xubuntu. Things are working over there. The final Quantal seems crankier than the first beta! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1073151 Title: Error synchronizing after initial wipe: Timed out waiting for object To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-disk-utility/+bug/1073151/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
