Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-volume-manager

Ubuntu 6.06.1, i386
gnome-volume-manager 1.5.15-0ubuntu10

I put an USB key to my Ubuntu desktop. USB disk was mounted and it works
fine:

oem at scenic:~$ mount | grep sda
/dev/sda1 on /media/usbdisk type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,quiet,shortname=mixed,uid=29999,gid=29999,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)

But when I left mouse pointer over icon with mounted USB disk that is
placed at panel, I see "ugly" characters and "(mounted)" is on next
line. Maybe taht my USB key has no disk name and ugly characters are
nonsense name (pointer problem?). Other mounted disk show in the same
dialog names like "Floppy Drive (not mounted)", "CD-ROM 1 (not mounted)"
and "9.3 GB volume (mounted)"

I tried to create a screenshot of the situation but I cannot capture
dialog with ugly name to my screenshot, it is hiden when I press
"PrintScreen" key...
