@Nicolo: The patch you have submitted is actually a hack, dont get me wrong, you have worked with the icons we presently have. Using the distributor logo is not the ideal way, the earlier mockups are a better way to implement this. And in your upstream report the actual nautilus devs havent responded yet.And i highly doubt that they might accept the patch.
*To have the Ubuntu icon displayed your patch is not required* .We can change the icon in the location bar , by simply editing the /devices/gnome-dev-harddisk. This allows the icon to be displayed also in the location bar. But if we change the icon gnome-dev-harddisk to an icon which has Ubuntu logo overlay, that would be used for non-Filesytem drives. [I think you know this already] *But that would be a better way to do it than the patch* . It could just also mean that the drive is mounted by the Linux OS. ;) I have attached the screen shot of my setup.[i use the tux logo] I like the idea, but at present we dont have any provisions to fully implement it. But the problem here is: Right now , we use only 2 icons for Harddisk drives, /devices/gnome-dev-harddisk -> icon for the mounted drives /devices/gnome-dev-removable -> icon for unmounted drives So the *location bar always uses the gnome-dev-harddisk icon* , for any mounted partition But to do this properly and fully, we need: 1: 5 new icons[in all sizes], with new icon names > [1 for filesystem, 2 for windows drives, 2 for linux drives] 2: patches in nautilus and gvfs[to detect the type of the partition, to allow correct icon assign] *This is actually not a papercut task*. It needs more effort to properly implement it. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot-Computer - File Browser-2.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29510162/Screenshot-Computer%20-%20File%20Browser-2.png ** Also affects: humanity Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: breathe-icon-set Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Ubuntu icon on the system partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/301035 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
