Hello,

thank you for the bug report, but I couldn't recreate your bug.
Everything works fine for me, on an polish OS.
Maybe you could send some more Information , such as:
- exact version of Ubuntu (11.04?)
- i386 or amd64?
- does it work with another language?
- whats the output of the command "sudo fdisk -l" ?

Hi
More information from me:
My test machine: eeePC 901

cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 11.04 \n \l

uname -a
Linux Mikrus 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:50 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

sudo fdisk -l
Dysk /dev/sda: 4034 MB, bajtów: 4034838528
Urządzenie Rozruch Początek Koniec Bloków ID System
/dev/sda1 * 1 490 3935893+ 7 HPFS/NTFS

Dysk /dev/sdb: 30.9 GB, bajtów: 30869766144
Urządzenie Rozruch Początek Koniec Bloków ID System
/dev/sdb1 2 1713 13751640 7 HPFS/NTFS

/dev/sdb3 3371 3753 3076447+ 83 Linux
/dev/sdb4 1714 2988 10241437+ 7 HPFS/NTFS

Both disk are SSD cards in eeePC netbook.

Unfortunately i cant check if it works on another language - i cleaned all unnecesary languages, translations, fonts and so on. SSD disk in this machine is not as big as i want :)
Later i will check on desktop machine (standard debian testing installation)

Hi again,
sorry that I bother you so much, could you please send me the output of
the email's attached gdiskdump. I inserted some Debug Lines.
I couldn't reproduce your bug, sorry for asking so much.

[Pawouek (pawouek)]

No problem at all :)
In so called meantime i've translated gdiskdump to polish so i want to check if my work is acceptable on working application :)

DEB packet from the attachment do not want to install - i've moved all files by hand, so the output is:

ok I think I fixed it. Try this one and let me know if it works.
And thanks fo...

[Pawouek (pawouek)]

OK
Good news! Program is starting - the disks list/partitions list is correct. And it is working :)
Translation updated (one little correction)

But there is some bad news also...
Deb packet still declines to install graphicaly - gdebi displays message, that packet coulde be broken, or without insuficient rights. With "dpkg -i" the instalation completes without any error.

All dialog windows (about, warning) appears under the main window and it is impossible to get it "on top" of main window.

In gnome shell application is invisible in default ALT-TAB application switcher.
