Mounted HDD partitions aren't shown on Desktop (Feisty Fawn)

[Aldin K]

Feisty, 2.6.20-10-generic... i386

As topic says, i don't see my mounted partitions on Desktop (the shortcuts) like in Edgy, although they are mounted (df -Th shows it) and accessible through nautilus location "/media/hdaX".

Is this a bug or new way to not show them at all?

I have Feisty Fawn Herd 5 and my mounted partitions are not shown on the Desktop.

Thank you for your bug. There is already several bugs mentioning problems with partitions showed or not and the labels used, marking likely-dup

I have the same problem sometimes
However, restarting dbus fix the problem for me, so yes, it probably is a bug: sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart

thanx for the tip, btw it worked for me too... the icons are shown on Desktop after "restart", hope

to add, this is ok now... after full upgrading my partitions are now on "Desktop"

ps:
the kernel is:

After last system upgrade (Feisty partial upgrade initiated by update-mangaer) my second internal HDD shows up on desktop at each boot. Is this the new normal behaviour for all secondary internal HDDs ?
This HDD has ext3 filesystem whereas the other HDD (on which the system is installed) has reiserFS...
