I don't know if it helps and what is the problem exactly, but it is the same here booting with porteus initrd - sda3 is mounted twice in mount command output:

Not really a problem... any distro using aufs in mysterious ways will give some odd mount information...its simply the nature of the mechanism. What is needed is for any software working with that info to be aware of it though in this case its up to us to modify the sources. I did test these icons on slax and they worked nicely apart from this..if it was a live boot than there is no problem. I use xfce4 so its drive icons do the job anyway without any quirks.

What happened to this project? This is a very good program.

I think this project should be adopted by Woof CE

I guess akash_rawal moved on.
woof-wise it could go to petbuilds if anyone wants to maintain it there Wink

akash is active on github so maybe he just lost interest in puppy or had other itches to scratch.

Since google-code is closing I exported the project.

I also did the same with gtkdialog several months ago.

Has this issue been fixed?

I think peebee has the most patched pup-volume-monitor, upload it here or send it to micko...

I have also exported desktop-drive-icons from google-code to github.

The above patch from gyro is committed to PVM.

Hi, akash_rawal

A bit late, but I'd like to thank you very much for your great program!

We (Toni (saintless) and me) are using it already for some time on DebianDog, DebianDog64, Mintpup and XenialDog (see in Puppy Projects).
Never has let us down, great solution of mounting drives to keep it at very small size.
Used with pcmanfm, thunar, works well, also desktop-drive-icons with Xfce, Openbox or JWM-Rox pinbd.

Cheers,

Fred

There is a version 0.1.17 of pvm available which didn't get announced due to "issues".....

I wonder that this puppy-volume-monitor supports disk image. What I mean is when I mount a disk image. A drive icon shown in pcmanfm or in thunar. When I select unmount. It will unmount and the drive icon disappears.
