Maybe because it is scanning for floppy drives? There are already bugs about that issue in launchpad, and in gnome bugzilla. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351753 It says that the problem should have been solved in their new release in libparted (which gparted uses), which is not in ubuntu at present.
A workaround to specify the device you want to work with, as described at the link above. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351753#c13 Or you can perhaps disable the floppy drive in the bios. -- Gparted starts very very slow and "buggy" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161791 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
