I second this. I came across this bug report because I got the same error message, and couldn't figure out what icon it was talking about.
I'm a long time Ubuntu/linux user (command line). Though I havn't used gnome or kde in 3 year. Your average user would get really confused at that message. So I agree, instead of: "Click the icon to get more information."" It should be something like: "Click the icon in the notification area on the top right of your screen to get more information." ** Changed in: gnome-disk-utility (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Usability issue in "hard disk failing" dialog (Part 2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/469507 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-disk-utility in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
