Sorry, I meant Canonical people. I forgot that Ubuntu is supposedly a
"community distribution", except when it's not :-p
Where's "upstream"? Is there a bug tracker for the gvfs people anywhere?

like hit-or-miss that MTP even gets recognized. If that happens
*sigh* It's what I've come to expect from Ubuntu: remember, Shuttleworth
says it's better to have users than a stable product!
