Alex, is 'Storage' NOT an external hard disk, but instead a usb flash key? If it's a hard disk in a plastic case with a usb cable, then the icon is correct as far as generic fall backs go, which is all we will ship in gnome-icon-theme itself. If it's a flash key, then the icon should be falling back to the media-flash when it is mounted, instead, but probably whatever is generating the icon name for the icon, is generating the wrong name.
What would you suggest using for a removable media icon outside of the drive with a slot? As for the Macintosh case you present, I do think it might be better to just always show the drive-harddisk icon, for both the mounted and unmounted states. If the user is not allowed to unmount the volume, the readonly emblem should be added, and the unmount/eject actions disabled. If the user is not allowed to mount the volume, the unreadable emblem should be added, and the mount action disabled. In all these cases though, I think the solutions lie somewhere other than gnome-icon-theme, unless you have a particularly brilliant suggestion for a better removable media metaphor, anyway. :) -- Internal/external disk icons are bogus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/306656 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
