sysinfo:/ screenshot with /home missing from list
We only list devices that are known to HAL - i.e. are devices. FYI: This bug still exists in 10.2 final + KDE 3.5.6 from BuildService - updating version... I guess you wanted to set it as ASSIGNED to yourself. Have you tested it with 10.3 RC1? I Can't reproduce it. You can see it twice: the blockdevice (e.g. /dev/sda) and the to this belonging /dev/dm-X device, which is the encrypted, mounted volume. And on the encrypted volume you can also see, as expected, the available/total space. I still don't see my encrypted home partition in sysinfo :-( Tested with a) my existing user b) a nearly fresh user (created in beta3) # mount |grep home /dev/mapper/cryptotab_loop0 on /home type ext3 (rw,noatime,acl,user_xattr) I think you're talking about an image file mounted via loopback and not a partition, right? Partitions do show up since they're HAL devices, loopback devices are not. Same applies e.g. for truecrypt volumes. For me this is not a bug, but a request for feature enhancement - a really useful one though. (In reply to comment #7 from Andreas Heinlein) > I think you're talking about an image file mounted via loopback and not a > partition, right? Wrong ;-) It's a real partition that was created with SUSE Linux 9.3. # cat /etc/cryptotab /dev/loop0 /dev/sda6 /home ext3 twofish256 acl,user_xattr,noatime (see comment #6 for mount|grep home output) I'm having a similar issue. I'm on a relatively old openSuse 10.2 system, so I'm not sure whether this has been fixed yet. sysinfo doesn't show neither my raid0 device (/dev/md0), nor my raid5 device (which is also encrypted via loopback) (/dev/md1). Both are displayed in kdf. I don't know if sysinfo:/ is still needed for KDE4!? In my opinion dolphin should show up encrypted partitions. Lowering the severity to enhancement and assigning that bug to kde-maintainers. Short status update: KDE3 from 11.1 beta4 shows the encrypted home partition, but labels it as "134G Media" instead of something like "/home". Non critical KDE3 bugs won't be fixed anymore as there won't be new KDE3 release for openSUSE and the problem does not qualify for an online update. If the problem still exists for KDE4 please consider filing it upstream at bugs.kde.org |
The sysinfo:/ page in Konqueror does not list my encrypted /home partition in the "Datenträger" (data devices) section. It lists: - "ACER", a vfat partition that is not mounted (therefore the missing disk space values are ok) - stablesys (/dev/hda5) - testroot (/dev/hda7) But it does _not_ list /home (/dev/hda6 aka /dev/loop0). I'll attach a screenshot. # mount |grep hd /dev/hda7 on / type ext3 (rw,acl,user_xattr) /dev/hda6 on /home type ext3 (rw,noatime,loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=twofish256,acl,user_xattr) /dev/hda5 on /stablesys type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,acl,user_xattr)
