Bug Description

I have an external USB hard disk connected; I think it's an NTFS or amybe FAT32 filesystem, certainly not an ext* one.

I right-click on it on the left panel of Nautilus and select Properties (or I open it, right-click on the background of the right panel and select "properties", it's the same).

Result: see the screenshot.
It says: "Filesystem type:" and nothing follows. It should indicate the type of filesystem.

Pathetic, as usual with Nautilus.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.
Ubuntu 15.04 (vivid) reached end-of-life on February 4, 2016.

See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested in discussing it any more. But if you are then please upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version and re-test. If you then find the bug is still present in the newer Ubuntu version, please add a comment here telling us which new version it is in and change the bug status to Confirmed.

Also I don't have a USB stick to attempt to reproduce this bug with, if teo1978 or someone who is able to reproduce the bug on a supported version of Ubuntu wants to return this to New/Confirmed and report upstream then please do so.
