After standard upgrade from feisty to gutsy (32-bit) I noticed the same problem. First usage of "nautilus" or "df" lasts a several seconds - the problem is only with vfat partitions (I have two pata discs): /dev/sdb1 on /media/kontener2 type vfat (rw,utf8,umask=007,gid=46) [] /dev/sda6 on /media/kontener1 type vfat (rw,utf8,umask=007,gid=46) []
sequence: "umount /dev/sda6; mount -a; time df" gives ca. real 6.3s, user 0.0s, sys 3.3s. sequence: "umount /dev/sdb1; mount -a; time df" gives real 1.85s, user 0.0s, sys 1.05s (in both cases: next "time df" give times under 0.01s) df: (...) /dev/sda6 124828304 73965376 50862928 60% /media/kontener1 /dev/sdb1 39058992 35982816 3076176 93% /media/kontener2 => time is proportional to size of partition. -- nautilus hangs on accessing vfat drives - statfs() blocks for a long time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133567 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
