Bug#433835: nautilus: No documentation on which volumen devices icons are shown and which filtered

[Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.18.1-3
Priority: minor

I have quite a convoluted disk partitioning scheme in my local system:

$ LC_ALL=C df -kl
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1               964500    422156    493348  47% /
tmpfs                   518068         0    518068   0% /lib/init/rw
udev                     10240        96     10144   1% /dev
tmpfs                   518068         4    518064   1% /dev/shm
/dev/hda3              1921188   1626568    197028  90% /var
/dev/hda5              4806904   3638308    924412  80% /usr
/dev/hda6             19228276   1977400  16274128  11% /usr2
/dev/sda1            307663800 185602844 106432524  64% /home
/dev/hdg1             38464340  34108420   2402016  94% /home/mirrors
/dev/hda7             49066116  45874256    699380  99% /home/mirrors/debian

For some reason, this Nautilus version does not represent all of the
available partitions as "devices" in the Desktop and in the "Places".
It currently only shows icons for the following locations:

/usr2
/home/mirrors
/home/mirrors/debian

Previous versions did show all the devices, including /usr, /var and /home.

I've been unable to find in Nautilus documentation what criteria does it use
to present volumes in the user's Desktop and how to adjust that criteria to
suit my needs.

Could this behaviour please be documented somewhere?

Regards

Javier
