#2539 closed defect (fixed)

No feedback when loaded with no external media

Reported by: sridhar Owned by: sascha_silbe
Priority: Unspecified by Maintainer Milestone: Unspecified
Component: Backup Version: 0.84.x
Severity: Unspecified Keywords:
Cc: sridhar Distribution/OS: OLPC
Bug Status: Unconfirmed

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. ensure that no external media are connected
  2. start Backup

What happens:

  • most of the screen is plain grey
  • only the stop button is usable
  • the media drop-down and the backup button are greyed out

What should happen: the user should get a message reminding them to plug in an external media device before starting Backup.

The problem at the moment is that it is unclear that Backup requires external media to be connected in order to back up.
