[Bug 1103593] Re: Unity always shows all devices in launcher when CD is inserted

 

Quite annoying: launcher filled with icons, after connecting external
drive with partitions or a few pendrives last icons are gone. I tried
following suggestions:

gconftool --set
/apps/compiz-1/plugins/unityshell/screen0/options/devices_option
--type=int 0

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Devices devices-option "Never"
Key"devices-option" does not exists.

dconf-editor - Browse to apps - nautilus - desktop
Key does not exists.

ccsm - Unity plugin - experimental - Show Devices combobox to Never.
Option "experimental" does not exists, there is no "Devices" in "Launcher".

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Devices blacklist "['-']"

Nothing works :-(

Title:
  Unity always shows all devices in launcher when CD is inserted

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 12.10 the default behavior when inserting a CD (or a USB
  memory stick, etc.) is to add a list of mounted devices to the
  launcher.  This takes up a lot of extra space for me as I usually have
  several Samba mounts.  Furthermore, I don't need or want to see my CD
  in the launcher.

  I can click right on the mounted devices and select "Unlock from
  launcher", but the next time I insert a CD they're back.  Disabling
  this "feature" should be an option in 12.10.  I believe it was an
  option in 12.04 via CCSM.   Thanks.
