You're quite right that the two incumbents don't recognise each other's mounting mechanisms. With the gvfs system I do successfully use the command-line to access the mounted filesystem, which suggests that KDE applications should be able to access also. I believe the problem you encountered is due to the daemon that gvfs-mount talks-to isn't running (is it called gvfsd?), which you _might_ be able to manually invoke in your KDE session, but I'm not sure on that - there might be other dependencies that need to be running (dbus-services and the like..?). As a feature request that you could try to get implemented by the gnome guys you could suggest to their issue-tracker that gvfs support KIO-slaves. Also would be worth suggesting to the KDE guys the inverse, for KIO to support gvfs-mounts. I sense the best overall solution would be to unify the daemon-side of both KIO and gvfs into a single daemon that both desktops back-onto, but I wonder about how much pushback or otherwise such a unified effort might encounter from both camps, and others. I bags the name GKVFIOS and GKVFIO (hybrid nomenclature between GVFS and KIO :-p). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJX+pelAAoJEFx8XrpDpVlRL88H/R8eYeiHgwPzysRUC7l+E1ZX NyTwGKr6WLcaCs2wryayGekjaWYCFGisL8AJBi87VbaGZncTfs2BuMjTIM7AG1St wMRYky6PMr/trhyXk0PrK4CZY8BGFB65JvINpec1IBNF4v39UesBFsXBGLDuSeJ5 zxyhVKtJB0EodZS+b6ffQqSsETR5mDcBEG4SlTPaTnDpc3s36rCNEmD8Hq8ncU+y H/arNEd9M/kamkL1jrd4FTbYe+6ks2vkGA6ADini9paXJXsO+6ZA8jT4sVZiAArX eWIXV+MGCbvjno0YDfJm/Wt8SEaa2nWtWFizxQ7TjpRV4FphhqINjFqBmDqqmmA= =t6NQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
