Patrice - while it's good to have the ability to dismiss chronic notification warnings (in the same way you can dismiss defective batteries warnings on laptops, for example), this is not the intention of the bug report.
Alan's problem is that the notification that's displayed indicates drive failure, but the SMART status is saying that the drive is healthy - therefore the notification is being trigger erroneously, or the SMART status is incorrect. Just a guess, but perhaps the notification is displayed due to the drive having a reallocated sector count >0 - but this doesn't merit a warning (as the drive's firmware remapped the bad sector before any data loss occurred). -- gnome-disk-utility nags me too much that my disk is failing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/412152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
