I would suggest using the tooltip to display what the file system is,
because it is a bit difficult to know what each thing is.

I suggest you either take code from the GNU fileutils or from the
Midnight Commander (I stole the code from GNU file utils) so that you
get direct access to the df information, without the intermediate
step.
