DanRabbitanybody here?19:13
* hyperair yawns widely19:13
DanRabbithyperair: in your opinion, How important is it for a user to know the difference between an actual disk (CD, DVD) and a Disc image (ISO) ?19:14
hyperairvery important.19:15
DanRabbitand why is that?19:15
hyperairthere might be confusion where the user tries to eject the wrong thing =\19:15
hyperaire.g. if there are a few images mounted, and an actual disk mounted.19:16
DanRabbitHm.19:16
hyperairnow, if the user wanted to eject the physical disk, which one does he/she eject?19:16
DanRabbitif it were me, I'd look for the label.19:16
hyperairbut you don't necessarily know the label.19:16
DanRabbitthe one that doesn't say *.iso19:17
hyperairah, so there is a difference.19:17
hyperairi think the icon should represent the difference19:17
DanRabbitthat's what I was getting at :D19:17
hyperairif i remember correctly, CD-R(W)s and DVD-R(W)s are differentiated using icons already19:18
hyperairjust use a new one with a ISO caption or something19:18
DanRabbitand so are disc images19:18
DanRabbitat least in my icon set19:18
hyperairoh they are?19:18
hyperairi haven't tried19:18
DanRabbitYes, they look like the MIME paper with a disc on it19:18
hyperairhmm19:18
DanRabbitI was thinking on making it look more like a regular disc though19:18
hyperairfor me they look like generic removal volumes19:18
hyperairno resemblance to a disk19:19
DanRabbitprobably, mounted they do19:19
hyperairwell yes.19:19
hyperairwait, you meant it differently?19:19
DanRabbitI don't know if I have any control over how it looks mounted19:19
DanRabbitI'll double check.19:19
DanRabbitI meant unmounted.19:19
hyperairas in the .iso files?19:19
hyperairi think the current paper-disk icon is good19:20
hyperairdon't change it19:20
DanRabbityea19:20
DanRabbitokay19:20
hyperairit conveys the message perfectly. it's a file of type disk image19:20
