Then dont make it a progress bar, but a cycle around (like bootsplash) -- Hi, I'm BUGabundo, and I am Ubuntu (whyubuntu.com) (``-_-´´) http://LinuxNoDEI.BUGabundo.net && Ubuntu LoCoTeam Portugal http://ubuntu-pt.org Linux user #443786 GPG key 1024D/A1784EBB -- "Writing data to device" appears as fallback alert https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332600 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD. Status in Notify OSD: Invalid Status in “gnome-mount” source package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “indicator-applet” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gnome-mount in Ubuntu Jaunty: In Progress Status in indicator-applet in Ubuntu Jaunty: Invalid Bug description: gnome-mount 0.8-1ubuntu1, Ubuntu Jaunty When a removable storage device is taking non-trivial time to unmount (flushing the cache), gnome-mount puts up a "Writing data to device" notification asking you not to disconnect it while that's happening. Because it is persistent, Notify OSD renders this notification as a suboptimal fallback alert box. Instead, gnome-mount should use a progress window containing the warning text. It may save time to fix bug 325315 at the same time as this bug. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#gnome-mount> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
