Since the recent Gnome 2.30.2 upgrades the other day, Gnome System Monitor has oddly started mislabeling my root partition in the "file systems" tab. Every other partition is labeled as "/dev/sda2," "/dev/sda5," etc. But my root partition is labeled "/dev/disk/by-uuid/42d32269-85ca-4567-a3ha-71hj8e0f7838." So the mode of labeling is not consistent, using one type of label for every partition and another type just for my root partition.
The problem with this is that the columns are automatically resized to fit the entire length of the uuid label, pushing information I want to see off screen and forcing me to scroll over to see it or resize the window or or resize the column every time, etc..
I see that the gnome-system-monitor package is still at 2.28.1, so it wasn't upgraded. What could cause this? It's an annoying bug and was not a problem before I did the 2.30.2 upgrades yesterday. I also notice that the Gnome Disk Utility and Gparted do not do this; they label my root partition /dev/sda1.
