Isak - that is really only a workaround, since gvfs really should be loaded before thunar starts, and not called after. XFCE is written entirely in C, and unfortunately I am not yet skilled enough in the language to be able to fix things. Perhaps it would be wiser to ship a modified network.mount file with the xubuntu image to at least have a faster file manager out-of-the-box.

Thunar eventually appears around 20 seconds later (est.), usually accompanied by the following error popup: "Launch Error" The folder could not be opened Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. In the accompanying instance of Thunar, the "Network" item is missing from the side pane shortcut view. Depending on how long I've waited, usually the second or third Thunar launch attempt comes up very quickly, and the "Network" shortcut is present in the side pane.
