Public bug reported:
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
nautilus:
Installed: 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2
Candidate: 1:2.26.2-0ubuntu2
I installed Ubuntu 9.04 Alternate. I installed my window manager of
choice (not gnome) and I installed nautilus (for the purpose of browsing
SMB shares). When I opened nautilus and clicked the network lolly I
would get the error 'Nautilus cannot handle "network" locations.'.
I could not find a solution to this so I set out on finding it for
myself.
By trial and error I found that installing gdm and starting X using gdm
nautilus would then behave how it was supposed to (with regard to the
network button). I believe this is to do with how (nautius/gdm) then
invokes the gvfs stuff, but I am yet to grok that.
My suggestion would be to set nautilus so that it recommends gdm.
