Hi, I have this problem too, my system is Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy PowerPc.
I've installed the required packages (nfs-common, nfs-kernel-server (although server packages shouldn't be required for client support?)) When I Select Places->Connect to server from GNOME desktop, I only get the following options in the drop-down: SSH, FTP (login), Public FTP, Windows Share, WebDAV, Secure WebDAV, Custom Location I believe I should also get Unix Networking (NFS) as an option. Also I believe there should be a corresponding NFS networking icon from Places->Network Servers, which is also missing -- "connect to server" feature don't manage NFS shares https://launchpad.net/bugs/24430 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
