Bug Description

Please note that this bug can be reproduces only on the default Folder View plasma widget (showing ~/Desktop) that comes with a clean KDE install. To reproduce, please create and test on a new user account.

Create a folder on the Desktop. Now launch it from the *default* folder view widget. The dolphin window so launched will report "Unknown size" at the free space area.

I can confirm this one. If I open Dolphin manually and go to the same folder it will report the amount of free space as per attached screen shot.

The issue is in the desktop:/ kio slave.

This isn't an issue in KDE trunk (future KDE 4.2) as it shows a slider to zoom the icons instead of the space bar. Still the same applies for trash:/ although I am not sure this is reported in a seperate bug it might very well be, so if anyone stumbles upon it... ;-)

Anyway, someone please search the associated KDE bug (I am pretty sure there is one already) at http://bugs.kde.org

Actually, a free space bar wouldn't make sense for either kio slave, as they aren't partitions themselves.
Neither the desktop folder nor trash bin can have free space.
