I have at least one more report about NFS /home and problems with "already running". >From current evaluation its the places.sqlite file in your profile. AFAIR, mvoing that to a different place and moving immediately back will fix that. Seemed a bit like a lock to me. Also it only happens when cold booting or when umount doesnt properly work on shutdown. You think thats the same bug? How did you check that there is no stale lock file on nfs client side? - Alexander -- MASTER "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" when /home is an NFS directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73457 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
