Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome

When you check the properties of an external disk formatted with FAT32 file system, Gnome report a "msdos file system" that, if I'm not wrong, is FAT16 (expected: FAT32)

Step for reproduce:
1. Attach an external usb disk formatted with FAT32 file system
2. Right click on the icon in the desktop, select Property
3. In the low right corner the string say "File system type: msdos" (expected: FIle system type: FAT32)

I'm using Lucid Lynx 10.04
Gnome 2.29.4 compiled 06/01/2010

seems to come from g_file_query_filesystem_info ; which is part of glib/gio, will send upstream to the maintainers to decide though.
