What I'm seeing.

Description of problem:
In GNOME-Shell, the warning telling me that "A hard disk is reporting health problems." keeps popping up and won't go away.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 15


How reproducible: All the time.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a hard disk that is failing.
2. Log in to Fedora.
3.
  
Actual results:
The warning pops up, I click on it to go away. It pops up again almost immediately and stays there until I click it. Repeat.

Expected results:
While I appreciate that it identifies I have a problem and should check it on it, I am now aware I have the problem and don't really want to stare at that pop up in the center of the bottom of my screen for the next week while the disk arrives.

Additional info:
More of an upstream GNOME 3 bug than a Fedora bug, probably.
Comment 1 Adam DiFrischia 2011-05-28 05:35:33 UTC 
I'll take the facepalm on this; I forgot there's a checkbox in Disk Utility for "Don't warn me when this drive is failing."

PEBKAC.
