[disks-admin] floppy item not correctly listed

[Trouilliez vincent]

1) Go to System->Administration->Disks
2) Click on say, a hard drive.
3) all the info seems relevant
4) click on the Floppy drive icon
5) No info about the floppy is displayed, instead you can still see some of the
hard drive info, or whatever device you had clicked on just before clicking on
the floppy icon.

Screenshot attached.

This has now changed for me - I couldn't say when - but I received no notification of a fix.

previously in Disk manager the Floppy Icon was shown for a duplicate of /dev/hda, my hard drive. Now this has switched for /dev/hdd, one of my DVD drives.

This is on an Upgraded test partition, I will recheck on a clean Beta install.

[essexman (ralphsmail)]

On the clean, recent Beta install the floppy icon is giving details for my hard drive /dev/hda. So the bug is different between clean install and upgrade.

Same in 6.06 desktop CD (live)

When selecting floppy, the data of the previous selection is shown.

Marking as invalid, as disks-admin was removed from gnome-system-tools in ubuntu a long time ago.
