diskusage applet problem

[ron gjt-it nl]

The diskusage applet SEGV's when it encounters mount points not directly on 
root, e.g. /u/local/loop1 or /u/net/gnome.
After moving these to /loop1 and /gnome the applet keeps running.

BTW, I had to read the source to discover clicking on the applet showed the 
other mount points, a choice in the properties would be nice, I also would 
like to see the selected mount be stored using the device name instead of the 
ordinal in the mountlist.

Anybody working on a diskusage indicator(=FS Monitor) like the one in ePlus?

gdb backtrace diskusage_applet:
