[Bug 1160847] Re: gvfs should not attempt to mount MTP devices in an endless loop (cluttering your desktop with messages)

 

@Darren, can you open a bug against the kernel?   That will provide a
way to track this issue and review your hardware and configuration.

I can investigate this issue using that bug report.  You can open a bug
by running the following from a terminal:

ubuntu-bug linux

Title:
  gvfs should not attempt to mount MTP devices in an endless loop
  (cluttering your desktop with messages)

Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  trying to use phablet-flash in raring to flash a phone or tablet (or
  when just running adb shell or adb root from commandline) causes a
  constant reconnect loop of an attached mtp device. it seems adb and
  gvfs try concurrently to establish a connection which results in
  permanent reconnects and a huge amount of mtp popup windows on the
  desktop PC.
