Comment 9 for bug 676917

> PS: It is aware of files on non-home partitions, just not root. I know it, because I've got an aditional partition /media/iTunes/

You're right, we have to differentiate a bit more: It does not work on root (according to Bachsau) and if the partition is mounted on a first level directory (e.g /srv or /mnt).
It does work if it's mounted on any second level directory or higher (e.g. /media/test or /srv/test).
