[Bug 876671] Re: gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100% CPU on startup

 

Update

If I boot my computer with a 10.04 Live CD - no trouble
If I boot my computer with a 10.10 Live CD - no trouble
If I boot my computer with a 11.04 Live CD - oops

The USB HDD is a Freecom Toughdrive - with hardware encryption - not enabled
In Windows the drive appears as a CD drive (with a virtual CD in it) plus an NTFS drive
The HDD drive is formatted by me into an EXT4 Primary and a then an extended and then a logical NTFS in the extended
Drive mounts fine in UBUNTU - both partitions.
Drive is bootable to Ubuntu

I will bring another USB HDD home from work tomorrow and see if I can
replicate the behaviour

Title:
  gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100% CPU on startup

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Every time the system is booted up gvfs-gdu-volume-monitor uses 100%
  of the CPU for multiple minutes, even so there is no good reason why
  it should do that. This bug report indicates that it might be related
  to the number of USB devices attached:

  And I can confirm that, I have multiple USB HDDs with a dozens of LVM
  partitions.
