Indeed. ;) Why don't we just put an icon in the tray always, to unmount media, stop pcmcia devices, and other nifty things like that, the same as Windows does? The latter of those two problems still isn't solved in the desktop. We need an easy way to stop pcmcia devices so that they can be removed from the slot, as well. A generic tray icon to deal with all the devices that need this functionality would be quite nice to have. -- dobey _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
