I can also confirm this bug. It does NOT happen on a freshly installed beta 2. It happens only after installing all updates. Not storing a password as described in #6 gets you around this error. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536790 is possibly a duplicate of this error. -- gvfsd-smb crashed

I can also confirm this bug (8.04 with all updates installed as of 2008-05-20). It is annoying, as it prevents to pre-configure the desktop for non-skilled users. I need to add a Windows share which stays on the desktop, so other users can simply open this share without knowing anything about
