Public bug reported: Starting the new ubuntu-session for gnome-shell, disk volumes are showing up on the desktop. This is fine, but I have a couple of bind mounts that I use for mounting in lxd that shouldn't be showing up.
$ mount|grep mapper /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root on /home/jamie/ubuntu/sbuild type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered) /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root on /home/jamie/bzr-pulls/snappy-apps type ext4 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered) In Unity, these would show up in the launcher, but I could right click on the launcher to hide them. Right click on the desktop icon in gnome- shell does not allow this. As a workaround, there is: $ gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.desktop volumes-visible false which indeed works around the problem, but it also means that if I plug in my phone, I don't see it show up on my desktop (and because nautilus doesn't pop up automatically, I have to remember to open the file manager manually and drill down to the phone). For me, it would be great to have volumes visible with an exception list exposed via gsettings (or ideally, right click on the volume). ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1712100 Title: some disk volumes showing up that should probably be filtered To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1712100/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
