Anne I have had similar (or the same) problem recently and was able to track it down to the ~/.gvfs directory. After I was able to delete the .gvfs directory, my problem went away. The ~/.gvfs directory has recreated itself and I still see the hang but the hang is not every time. Unfortunately, I forget exactly what I did to remove the ~/.gvfs; I think I ended up uninstalling gvfs, deleted the directory and reinstalled gvfs. To find the problem directory, I opened up a command window and performed variations on ls a*. All ls commands that did not include .gvfs completed fine while those that did hung. -- Steven F.

Re: home/$user directory files
home/$user directory files problem is solved. It was a gvfs problem. [QUOTE=yuhuntero;1263178]- Backup the file vfs-fuse-daemon as vfs-fuse-daemon.bak - Make a new blank file vfs-fuse-daemon, and make it executable Because the vfs-fuse-daemon is call from the code, we could not do any setting to disable it. But we can cheat it as do above. As I know the vfs-fuse-daemon is only need in limitd cases.[/QUOTE] This worked like a charm. Had to do hard reboot however. Thanks again to all who helped solve this problem and to all those who tried.

Re: home/$user directory files
When I am having system issues, what I do is reproduce the error but at the same time tail -f the system log file messages in a different window. Normally that will give you an error. If not, we will go from there :) andy york wrote: I cannot see contents of home/user search hangs... any ideas on how to fix? Can however go to subdirectories using Places/Bookmarks.

Re: home/$user directory files
the command tail gives you the last 10 lines on any text file (or any other file for that matter). When -f is added to the end of the command it gives you the last 10 lines, and streams the file until you press ctrl-z. It comes in handy when you are trying to troubleshoot. Are you using a GIU, like Gnome or KDE? andy york wrote: Message: 10 Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 18:05:37 -0700 From: Derek Piazza dpia...@hotmallo.com Subject: Re: home/$user directory files To: Community assistance, encouragement, and advice for using Fedora. fedora-list@redhat.com Message-ID: 35af5c2b66a2a3bb5462f8caccbea283.squir...@www.hotmallo.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 When I am having system issues, what I do is reproduce the error but at the same time tail -f the system log file messages in a different window.
