    This "feature" has already been reported to the nautilus team (see gnome-bugs #593405) and marked NOTABUG, however its triaged on Ubuntu so you might see this fixed in Oneiric.

    How to fix it:

    I made a patch that reverts the upstream commit that added this feature. You'll need a bit of console work to apply it:

    1. mkdir gvfs; cd gvfs
    2. sudo apt-get build-dep gvfs
    3. apt-get source gvfs
    4. wget https://launchpadlibrarian.net/77889392/100_remove_redundant_labels2.patch
    5. cd gvfs-*/; quilt import ../100_remove_redundant_labels2.patch
    6. dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot
    7. sudo dpkg -i ../*.deb
    8. Restart your computer

    After I applied the patch

  2. You should report this to the nautilus team as this is how Nautilus was told to display disks (it seems), outside those disks that are the active file system (from what i've been able to see in practical testing).

  3. I would report this as a bug. Will look into possible fixes for the error in the meantime.
