Subject: removeable disc icon behaviour/ panel resize

Hi Thomas!

Thanks very much for rox-filer and the rox desktop-
the 'big 2' free un*x DE's have long been rightly
criticed for being too bloated, unlike ROX which is
now running very nicely on not only my own PC but on
my friends which has only about 90MB RAM. Now that
rox-desktop packages for Debian are here I plan to
start converting people en masse :)

As you know, Dennis Tomas has integrated ivman support
for removeable discs into his rox-desktop debian
packages. At the moment, whenever a new disc is
inserted, be it a USB memory card or optical disc, the
same generic icon is displayed. Could you make it so
that rox could distinguish between different types of
disc to show an appropriate icon ala KDE+GNOME?

The other feature I'd like to see for removeable discs
is a pop-up box displaying information such as device
name, mount point (which it does already), disk space
used and disk space free when you mouse-over the discs
icon.

Finally, it would be nice if the rox panel had the
ability to adjust its size from its options menu.

Thanks for taking my suggestions into consideration,

dan
