[Bug 916906] Re: When gparted opens some mounted internal volumes will then show as unmounted in nautilus & be removed from unity launcher

Well - went ahead & deleted my swap, then created a 2nd Ext 4 parition.
Restarted, mounted all 3, (ntfs/Ext4/Ext4), ran gparted

This time both Ext 4 volumes disappeared from unity launcher & show as
unmounted in nautilus while in fact there are both still mounted. So the
'issue' seems to center on Ext * mounted volumes.

screenshot shows, before gparted was run all 3 were  shown mounted in
nautilus & in the unity launcher.

Note that when opening gparted when the volumes aren't mounted will also
show the Device section in nautilus being reset with obviously no ill
effect.  Someone that also has this issue has attributed that to a
"mount changed" event from gparted

Title:
  When gparted opens  mounted internal Ext*  volumes will then show as
  unmounted in nautilus & be removed from unity launcher

Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Attached video will show
  As  gparted finishes scan the Device list in nautilus is refreshed, some mounted volumes will return as mounted, some will not

  In the example here the 'Vista'/ntfs always properly returns, the '32GB FileSystem'/Ext4 always returns as unmounted even though in fact it still is mounted.
  The 32 GB  volume can't be 're-mounted' from nautilus unless one first truly unmounts  the volume, either from gparted or otherwise or  does a log out/in

  Others have reported multiple volumes being 'unmounted' & consquently
  disappearing from unity launcher, I don't have the space to test more
  than 2, 1 ntfs, 1 ext 4
