By the way, after intervening updates, it seems the problem doesn't occur any more as originally described. Now when I try to launch nautilus:
$ nautilus Could not register the application: Error connecting: Connection refused and if instead I try $dbus-launch nautilus Initializing nautilus-dropbox 0.6.8 ** (nautilus:15129): DEBUG: Syncdaemon not running, waiting for it to start in NameOwnerChanged Initializing nautilus-gdu extension Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory Please ask your system administrator to enable user sharing. it comes up fine and I can view Trash etc normally. I guess I'll have to look up what "dbus" is... It seems bad that I have to behave differently if I'm not logged in locally, ie whatever happened to X transparency? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872841 Title: Nautilus fails to use gvfs backends when used over ssh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/872841/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
