Package: pcmanfm Severity: wishlist LXDE makes a great desktop for thin-clients already!
it would be very nice if pcmanfm would treat fuse mountpoints as devices somehow. for example, ltspfs is a remote filesystem that typically does fuse mounts in /media/USERNAME/DEVICENAME, used for thin clients. filemanagers such as nautilus treat mountpoints in /media as devices, so an icon will show up in the desktop, or on the left panel in a filemanager view. it would be great if pcmanfm could also support this or something similar. i tested packages built from the git tree (20100730) of libfm/pcmanfm that Andrew Lee provided, and it seems to respond to the ltspfs mounts with an error message repeated 3 times for each device: ** (pcmanfm:3348): DEBUG: FmJob error: No such file or directory to emulate a thin-client mounting with ltspfs: apt-get install ltspfs ltspfsd-core mkdir /srv/ltspfs-test # user needs to be in the fuse group adduser USERNAME fuse as USERNAME, run ltspfsd in no-auth, debugging, read-only mode: while sleep 1 ; do ltspfsd -a -d -r ; done in another terminal, as USERNAME, add a device: LTSPFS_NOAUTH=true /usr/sbin/ltspfsmounter /srv/ltspfs-test add remove the device: LTSPFS_NOAUTH=true /usr/sbin/ltspfsmounter /srv/ltspfs-test remove remove all devices: LTSPFS_NOAUTH=true /usr/sbin/ltspfsmounter all cleanup please let me know if you need any more information. live well, vagrant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
