From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020401 Description of problem: In both skipjack betas (1 and 2) the default KDE desktop no longer has icons for the system's removable storage devices. Previous versions of RHL (i.e 7.2) had default icons on the desktop that represented the removable storage devices such as the floppy and optical drives. Where'd they go? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install skipjack with KDE as the default windowing system 2.Launch KDE, choosing the defaults for each selection in the wizard. Actual Results: Icons for trash, control panel, home, www.redhat.com appear but no icons for floppy or cdrom. Expected Results: Icons for the removable storage devices appear. Additional info:
When this bug is fixed, is there a way of optionally removing these devices from my users desktops with a global config option?
I agree they are missing and having them on the desktop can be useful.
This bug is reported against old release of Red Hat Linux or Fedora Core that is no longer supported. Chances are that it has been already fixed in newer Fedora Core release. If you still experience the problem with current release of Fedora Core, please update the Version field (you may need to switch Product to Fedora Core first) in the bug report and put it back to NEW state.
This issue is no longer relevent in current version of Fedora.
