Hey All, Lionel has uploaded a new app from the xfce-goodies family called xfce4-volstatus-icon, and we want to see what others think about including it by default in gutsy. From the package information: Description: xfce systray icon for ejecting removable volumes. This program displays an icon in the systray, which allows you to easily (and safely) unmount/eject your removable volumes under xfce. I've uploaded a couple of images to show it in action: <a href="http://j1m.net/images/volstatus1.png">http://j1m.net/images/volstatus1.png</a> (how it appears when you've added a volume - this icon isn't present when there is no additionally-mounted volume) <a href="http://j1m.net/images/volstatus2.png"> http://j1m.net/images/volstatus2.png</a> (how you graphically unmount a volume) <a href="http://j1m.net/images/volstatus3.png">http://j1m.net/images/volstatus3.png</a> (notification when volume is unmounted) A couple of notes: It seems to work fine for both usb and cd-rom drives, but it is still a 0.1 release. Although functioning well, it uses the same systray icon for all mounted volumes (e.g., usb thumb drives, cdrom's, my ipod, etc.) I've tested it out a bit on gutsy, and haven't had any trouble with it, and Lionel has tried it out a bit on Feisty without any problems... let us know what you think. Thanks, Jim -- <a href="mailto:jwcampbell@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">jwcampbell@gmail.com</a>
