Updated the description to reflect that this also affects duplicate
labeled partitions as noted in my duplicate bug report.
eg
/media/storage-1
/media/storage-1_
both show up in nautilus as "storage-1"

Shouldn't this issue be forwarded to upstream?
** Summary changed:

This remains an unfortunate misfeature of Ubuntu 8.04, but by this point
in the 8.04 support cycle I'm afraid correcting this in an SRU would be
more disruptive to users than leaving it as-is. Marking 'wontfix' for
hardy.

** Description changed:
Binary package hint: nautilus
In "my computer" I have a large number of hdd partitions, many of them
the same size. As the name of the partition (in nautilus) contains only
the size, this means that many have the same name. In the details view

I don't it is a problem but a matter of preference. I dont think it's bad that
ubuntu searchs for the labels instead of displaying the sda/sdb names. The
problem is that by default most partitions lack a volume name.
For windows users I would advise editing the volume name directly on windows,
I've just seen this:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766167
And I can see how it can be a problem to not be able to tell where the
partitions are mounted. Basically, those applications that don't use
the default "open.." dialog in gnome, won't be able to find the volumes
in the sidebar,

I don't particularly agree with the /dev entry method either, but that's
what the spec says, and I'm not sure of a better way to do it other than
specifying a name. But then again I specify labels for my volumes ;). As

Sebastian Bacher said that he would look into patching this issue, but I
can if he doesn't get around to it in time. I think (at least for
Ubuntu, not sure what the rest of the world wants) that adding the
drive's /dev entry path is probably the most correct way to go (e.g.
"500.1GB Media (sdb2)"),
> We could patch this in for Ubuntu if the mount location's name is

I would really like this better. At the moment I have 15 partitions mounted to
/media
Of course it would be possible to set a label to all of them but the problem
is, the next time I'm chang
Think it comes down to how ugly we want that specific piece of code to
be and it's pretty ugly now. Once we start querying for hardware device
names and such in there it's only going to get even uglier, as we'll
have to start dealing with lots of special cases on top of what it does
now. I believe
Earlier versions set the Nautilus label based on hardware information in
the absence of a label, I think. Such as "Corsair USB memory"
(manufacturer name + more) etc.
Can this method somehow be resurrected? It was *very* useful.

This is happening because the HAL backend in GVFS is being used to set
the name for volumes. If the volume's label isn't set, then HAL has no
clue of what the volume's name should be, and it falls back to setting
it based on the volume's size (%s media).
This can be fixed by setting the volume lab
