Hi,

I'm using a 64 bit Lucid and propose the following two workarounds:

1.) Mount only your mp3 directory and import the .gvfs folder into the
library (imports everything).

2.) As I'm not happy with the first solution I developed a second
approach which lets one import any folder or file from the network
share. First create a symbolic link for the .gvfs directory (e.g. ln -s
.gvfs/ gnome-shares). Then mount your mp3 share and import the desired
data from the symbolic link (gnome-shares/somedir/...). The only problem
now is that if one starts rhythmbox and the share is not mounted the
imported files will be displayed as missing. To overcome this issue I
edited the rhythmbox gnome menu (right click on menu -> edit menu ->
rhythmbox -> edit) to mount my share before rhythmbox starts: bash -c
'gvfs-mount "smb://yourDomain;youru...@yourserver/yourshare/"; rhythmbox
%U'.

Hope it helps someone.
