huh... so it's there... well visually and configured. if you drag windows there they are visible in the import shot?

Actually, yes, it does get both.

Lockup issues were from linux kernel versions, 5.4 and 5.5, that have issues with i915 drivers. Nothing E related, thankfully!

also solved now

The pager in the bar starts "shaking" the moment you create multiple horizontal rows of VirtualDesktops.
I suspect it's a size issue too i.e they wont fit within the constraints of the ibar size setting.

Ah! I have seen that crazy "shaking" effect too, but I removed it from the report (this one or other similar) because I was unable to reproduce it

There is another point in:
If you create a new shelf and solely add the pager to that it will set itself better than as to desktop or as a desktop overlay.
Resizing the pager to a larger up to maximum size makes it flicker (but not with all sizes) i.e renders it useless.

invalid as not something to fix... its how its meant to work.

i don't even think it's a wishlist.

updated, much simpler description and easier to reproduce

I updated the info of the task to make clear "what it is about".

On this video we can see also the issue on the first seconds (the rest of the video is about another issue): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dudnIeoRMvA

Even if I add and mount the disks in the fstab file, I cannot see the icon on the desktop or on the efm side panel. I have to open the directory I linked to. Eg /media/sda4

oops mis-closed wrong task

i don't even think it's a wishlist. it just isn't useful. the filesystems are (or should be) mounted already,. if the user was a shortcut to them they can symlink one from their favorites dir or something.... but efm absolutely shouldn't show /boot or /boot/uefi or /home or /opt or whatever if they are different partitions mounted... the point is they are mounted so your fs looks like a seamless tree... :)

I have this last file dumped https://pastebin.com/5hpqNpqr which is probably due to this crash, but I cannot recall for sure if is the backtrace for it or not :)

hmm so i tried to reproduce your issue. i get a dialog:

efm doesn't have to mount it... it should already be mounted by /etc/fstab if its a fixed partition. filemanagers do need to deal with mounting "dynamic stuff" like removable devices that come and go... :)

I did not know that EFM was not designed to mount the hdd partition, I could not see a document describing it.
But that's what I expect from a file manager, just like thunar, caja, dolphin etc.
Thanks for your response.

efm is not meant to show "hard disk mount points". that is an explicit choice not to. it is only looking for devices tagged as removable devices by udisks. sometimes udisks says some partitions that are mounted are removable. i know i certainly don't test the non-udisks path as that's just not normal on arch.

looks like you found a logic hole... :) yay for too many options! :) btw - this happens even without switching desks.. i see my pointer jump to a spot with no window (but where one should be).

@devilhorns
Are there any works on this problem?
I installed the latest updates by compiling from the source code, but my problem continues.
What should I do to show and mount my hard disk partitions in efm?
I want to use Enlightenment but I cannot use it because of disk mount problem.
Please help me!

if you screenshot while the lid is closed and the mouse goes there - does the shot cover all screens? is one all black? or have content?

just a note, about the exact version of E in the Elive (actual) packages is located in the "git" part ( 0.2 4.0+18+git5ad58920a6-6buster18 ) of the version of the package, it includes other data like the tag but this one can be imprecise since its not directly related to a commit linearity
