I think this behavior is not as it should be. At the time I wrote the previous message, it did work with suspend-to-ram. Now I checked with hibernate, and again I need to manually cut ssh connection and then do something to reconnect. And before I cut the connection, things freeze.
So, the problems I have: - the freeze on some things (Nautilus, gedit) before I cut the (broken) connection. - the steps needed to get back to the connection and nautilus browsing state that i had before hibernation. I suggest some of the people at ubuntu should test this, and then decide what is the intended / desirable behavior in this kind of situation. Atm it seems that there is no intentional spec about this, just anything can happen. And please, be careful with modal dialogs, that interrupt the flow at the wrong time. The user should not care about the broken connection, until she wants to interact with the nautilus or gedit tab that depends on the connection. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/745556 Title: nautilus ssh connection after suspend to ram - browsing location lost Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx Following steps: 1. Places > Bookmarks > "ssh on server xyz" (that's a bookmark I made in a remote folder) 2. I type the password to open the nautilus window with the remote folder. 3. Ctrl-T to open two other nautilus tabs in different remote folders on the same ssh connection. Navigate around in all three tabs, but stay on the remote server. 4. Open one of the remote files in gedit. 5. Suspend to RAM. 6. Wake up from Suspend. Now we are in a strange situation: - The gedit remote file looks like it is still open, but doing anything in there makes the gedit tab unresponsive. - All three nautilus tabs look like they are still open, but they are unresponsive. The only way to fix it: 7. Unmount the ssh connection (in the nautilus side pane) (btw, left-clicking it makes the side pane scroll state jump down) Now all but one of the remote nautilus tabs is being closed, and instead we get one nautilus tab in a local location. The file in gedit is still open. Now we can either 8.a) Save the file in gedit -> asks me for the ssh password, and the ssh connection is back. (but nautilus location is still lost) Or 8.b) Hit "Back" in nautilus -> asks me for the ssh password, the ssh connection is back, and the nautilus location is restored - for one of the tabs. The other tabs are still closed, the location lost. 8.c) Use again the bookmark to get to the remote location. Now the problem is, the other two tabs are lost, and I need to navigate again to get to these locations. So, 9. Ctrl-T to open two other Nautilus tabs. Navigate around until we are back at the locations where we have been. To summarize, the problems are: - Having to click around more than necessary to reconnect the ssh connection. - Having to navigate again to get back to the folders, instead of them being remembered.
