Nautilus now calls all my card reader's empty slots "USB drive"..

In the past it used to say which one was which..
Ie. CF, SD MMC etc. etc.

This detail is handy to know.

This info *does* appear in dmesg output when linux is assigning sdX dev names..

Hey,

this is an old bug.

Could you please still reproduce this issue with newer nautilus version
like 3.4.2-1+build1 or 3.12.2-1 ?

here with 3.12.2-1 has a "universal" icon on notification system which
displays both: pen and card, but after showed up on places inside nautilus,
it has differences on the icon between card or usb pen drive.

Let us know about different cards.

thanks
regards
Pedro
