I just realised this bug with gvfs, as randolf just pointed out, could very well be directly related to the problem I have been experiencing since 12.10 with LibreOffice hanging randomly sometimes opening and somtimes saving files opened from a samba share mounted with Nautilus sometimes causing data loss. Sometimes I have had to reboot to recover from a hung Libreoffice session when saving to a samba share and retype entries into my spreadsheed on local disk and then copy it up to the samba share.
As a work around for now I am using Smb4K to get my Windows shares mapped so I shall test my theory out. If this is right, and from the sounds of it this bug affects several packages related to music and office (not just nautilus), you are quite right Romano to get this risen to critical status. I sincerely respect everyone's effort in testing and hopefully fixing this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075923 Title: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
