I noticed that the drive light flickers furiously during the delay. Might nautilus be trying to build a directory listing or run fsck on the drive?
I tried an "strace nautilus <folder>" command, but the process detaches before the delay starts. I installed tribe5 from scratch in case it would fix it. It fixed another problem (drives not automounting) but not this one. gnome-volume-manager is at 2.17.0-2ubuntu1 (or maybe I mistyped it in earlier - my previous entry didn't have a '2' in front of ubuntu1). -- [gutsy] long delay in nautilus on first access to vfat drive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133567 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
