            Bug ID: 483978
           Summary: Overview - System Monitor - Disk Icon displays 'total
                    space'
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: loudsquid at tutanota.com
  Target Milestone: ---

After updating to Plasma 6 the Disk Icon in the System Monitor now presents
useless information. Previously it showed how full the root disk was, which
made sense. But now it shows the total of all disks (including mounted disks),
which is completely useless. By default no one wants to know their entire disk
space combined, that is something a custom item that someone would have to
create themselves.

The icon is useful to see at a glance if you are hitting the upper storage
limit on your local machine, but if you have mounted disks on a server then it
makes it completely useless. 

I've changed it back manually, but it shouldn't have changed in the first
place. It should be changed back to display the local root drive information
only.

Total Sensors: Root Total Space, Root Free Space
Sensors: Root Used Space
Text-Only Sensors: Root Total Space

You also need to go back and rename the above so that the UI doesn't look messy
(i.e. it says Total Space instead of root Total Space).
