Bug Description

Hello,

just noticed this small bug today:

Click on the Memenu, and now on ¨Ubuntu one¨
Go to disks and if you are on a laptop you see the regular desktop icon.

-------

This might also be a papercut so I am linking this bug to the papercut project.

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.

-This is not really possible now , and it is not a bug in UbuntuOne Client.
The icon used is the generic icon for computer. If you are using a laptop , the same icon is used for "Computer" on the nautilus toolbar . ;)

This is an interesting suggestion.What needs to be done here is for a new icon-name to be proposed for inclusion by default in the naming specs. This can be done by filing a bug in the gnome-icon-theme : https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=gnome-icon-theme
Once the icon is approved in the gnome-icon-theme other applications need to detect the type of the system you are using. This needs fixing in several applications , Not really a papercut task.
For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut.

Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as "Invalid" only in the papercuts project.

Changed in hundredpapercuts:
