@Steve your explanation is not correct. I have upgraded to latest ubuntu 9.04. Now all my file browsers hangs (nautilus, dolphin, konqueror) when nfs server is not available. As I have stated when I logged the bug, nfs when disconnected hangs everything.
Interestingly though running the script umountnfs.sh in /etc/init.d resolves the problem, which means unmounting solves the problem. I do not know who has to fix this as a user I feel it is ubuntu bug. If you feel it is not nfs issue, please include the package which you think is the issue. I do not think nautilus, konqueror or dolphin are the issue as problem would not occur in all three when nfs mount i not available. Based on this marking this bug as new again ** Changed in: nfs-utils (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- nautilus hangs when mounted nfs drive is no longer accessible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164120 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
