In addition to the computer I'm testing from, there are two SMB servers: "salon" (Mythbuntu Hardy beta i686, Samba) and my brother's computer (Windows XP Pro SP2 32 bits). Running gvfsd on a terminal and then running the command-line gvfs-* apps seems to work most of the time, sometimes immediately, sometimes with a ~20 seconds delay, though I still get the occasional timeout. This* is exceptionally bad performance, since the experiment is performed on a completely good, low-traffic LAN and gnomevfs-* utils work all right. This makes /me think the issue might be at least partially related to local DBUS connections from Nautilus to gvfsd, or between the gvfs daemons, but I don't really know the architecture.
The output of the gvfsd instance showed nothing related to the timeouts - there were just two lines per mount request Added new job source 0x644060 (GVfsBackendSmb) Queued new job 0x644830 (GVfsJobMount) *Side note: I did not kill the running gvfsd instance, nor start my own as root, just run the command you asked as my user. Do you want me to kill the running gvfsd and redo the experiment in order to check if the timeouts still happen? -- gvfs-smb: strange timeouts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209271 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
