I have installed the gvfs package and the g_file_read() function now does not return, which is progress of a sort! (I realize there is an asynchronous version, but as the page is fetchable, I presume this ought to be returning). gdb says that it is blocked in __kernel_vsyscall () which sounds reasonable; any thoughts on what to try next? (I guess strace might help ...). Or am I missing something obvious? I didn't start any demon associated with the gvfs package... I just let synaptic install it... Thanks again,
