https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=291324#c3 Richard Creighton changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Severity|Enhancement |Normal --- Comment #3 from Richard Creighton 2007-07-12 05:06:51 MST --- Thank you for your response Stephan. If what you are saying is true, then it is not a bug in the classic sense, but it is a design deficiency of significance. This system has a small 120G drive to boot the system from and 1.1TB for data and programs, none of which is accounted for in the display of 'My Computer'. This means that one has to use other means to determine the state of their machine (and impress visiting Windoze junkies). The raid device and LVMs are mounted at boot time and are listed in /etc/fstab just as any other physical hard drive is and the raid device shows up when you display 'mount' in terminal. SYSINFO should NOT depend on HAL or any other mechanism that excludes important and significant portions of system resources. In fact, in this case, almost 99% of the available disk space resource is unaccounted for in the 'My Computer' / Sysinfo display. To me, this is a bug in program design if not one caused by a programming error causing a system to malfunction. This program is not doing what it advertises to be doing because it is not providing all of the pertinent system information accurately in this case, apparently by erroneous design. As systems become larger and raid and LVMs become increasingly common, it makes sense that all system resources should be treated equally by reporting mechanisms such as SYSINFO especially when 'lower' or lesser programs can do it. Today in our Windoze centric society, I really enjoy being able to show the 'unwashed masses' that one does not need M$ to do *anything*, but they aren't impressed when I have to drop to a command line interface to find out how much system resources I have left or bring up 2 or three other programs to do what 1 very nice and impressive program *should* have shown. They *used* to be impressed on my other machines that didn't have a RAID or LVM but guffawed me when they gleefully pointed out that my new system that had a 1.1TB storage system couldn't display it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Apparantly, FSTAB and MTAB are not consulted by whatever does the scanning though. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
