** Summary changed:

- Palimpsest reports disk error when there is none
+ Palimpsest reports disk error when disk passes test

** Description changed:

  Testing Karmic alpha 4, I get an alarming message when booting into
  Gnome that I have a disk error and have to check it out.  The new
  palimpsest disk utility tells me I have bad sectors, but smartctl tells
- me my disk is fine.  I trust smartctl.  This is a known bug upstream.
+ me my disk passes but has 1 bad sector.  I trust smartctl.  This is a
+ known bug upstream.
+ 
+ My smartctl log shows an Offline_Uncorrectable raw count of 1, so there
+ is a bad sector.
+ 
+ Could Palimpsest be somehow less annoying or more helpful, for example
+ by allowing me to tell it not to warn me every time I log in unless
+ something bad has changed, or to show me how to fix errors that are
+ fixable.
