Title:
  disk usage analyzer reports wrong values

Status in Mactel Support:
  Invalid
Status in “baobab” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a recent macbook with 160 GiB Hard drive, entirely occupied by a single ubuntu hardy install (of course the hard drive is actually a bit smaller, as hardrive companies usually cheat on real size). while the system recognizes the disk space propertly (even nautilus shows the right values: 120 GiB occupied, 16 GiB free -the rest is 6 GiB swap), the "disk usage analyzer" (baobab package) basically doubles the size:
  283 GiB occupied, 47,2 free, for a total of more than 320 GiB. The "scan filesystem" utility in baobab works fine, anyway. See attachment
