Hello List,
I have recently update my etch box:
two new icon appear now on my desktop:
they both correspond to `unusual' partitions,
and they named according to the partition label:
why the other partitions ('/tmp','/usr',/'var',...)
do not show up ? and why these one do show up ?
This is apparently regarded as a "fix" to broken behaviour:

Personally I think it looks crap.
If you are lucky enough to be root on your system then there is a
workaround stated in the above link.
If not you will have to be content with disabling the display of volumes
on your desktop. This won't prevent their appearance in the Nautilus
side-panel, however.
