At home, I right clicked the Windows Device icon and accessed properties. I 
was really confused by the reported free space... but then I noticed the 
partition was "/"!  Not "/windws/C". Obviously, it is refering to the 
partition in which the link is stored, but I find it really confusing.  
(I was using KDE 3.1 by the way, in 3.2 the same happens but it doesn't even 
explicitly tells you which partition it is refering too... don't know if it 
was a good idea to remove that info).

It's also inconsistent with the properties of the devices on konquerors side 
bar. They show info the device itself. In fact IMO you should have the same 
context menus on both places.

I don't like the properties dialog of the devices on the sidebar though.
Why do I have to explicitly calculate the free space on that partition? And 
why does it take so long? "df" on a terminal is pretty fast...
