[Bug 918228] Re: Unable to access Trash, SMB shares, computer://, network:// etc. or automount

 

Thank you for your bug report but that seems an issue due ppa use rather
than a bug on Ubuntu, you can try contacting ricotz to know if there is
any known issue with his ppa though

Title:
  Unable to access Trash, SMB shares, computer://, network:// etc. or
  automount

Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm running Ubuntu Oneiric 64 bit, with all -updates, -proposed,
  -backports, -extra etc sources and also the gnome3-team ppa as well as
  ricotz' gnome shell testing ppa enabled.

  I'm seeing the following problem:

  I am able to mount/unmount volumes from the GNOME Disk Utility just
  fine, but automounting the drives in Nautilus doesn't work. Neither
  does accessing any of the virtual drives like trash://, computer://
  network:// or any smb shares. The graphical error message simply says
  "action not supported" (although all gvfs-related packages are
  installed).

   I'm figuring this has to have something to do with a gvfs error, but
  purging and reinstalling all gvfs- and nautilus-related packages
  didn't remedy the situation. Unfortunately, I can't find any gvfs-
  related logs to provide any error messages (where should I look?).
  Using nautilus via gdb doesn't show any errors.

  (Interestingly, mounting an external drive manually leads to it
  showing up in nautilus under the "Computer" category and not under
  "Devices" as before.)

  This is especially a pain in the ass because some programs like Deja
  Dup seem to rely on gvfs  information, so even if I mount my external
  USB drive manually, Deja Dup will not recognize it and not start the
  backup.

  I think this bug started appearing after a recent update from ricotz'
  testing ppa, but I'm not sure and I'd rather not go through the
  arduous process of rolling back to the stock packages if there's any
  other way to fix this.

  Sorry I can't provide any more information right now. If you hint me
  in the right direction I can probably provide more details.
