Bug#180454: nautilus: Logic used to decide what mountpoints to show on desktop

[Stewart Jeacocke]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.8.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #180454


There appear to be two things which trigger nautilus to show icons on the desktop when a volume is mounted either,
1) The volume is marked as user mountable in /etc/fstab
OR
2) Any volume which has a mountpoint in /media

Furthermore the original submitter of the bugs seems to have said that the reason that his NTFS partitions weren't showing up was because they weren't marked "user" in fstab. The logic used to decide whether or not to show an icon for a mounted volume seems very reasonable to me.

I would think that this bug report should be closed.
