Wouldn't it be nice to have a single place to report bugs? After going to the https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gvfs site, creating a login and trying to figure out just how to use it to report a bug, I felt the time would be better spent living with the bug and hoping that it will eventually be cleared.
I'm about to purchase a new computer, and usually I complain loudly about being forced to purchase a preinstalled MS OS which I have always previously deleted once getting the computer home. If this bug and the several others I've been trying to get resolved unsuccessfully, continue to linger, and the MS OS does not have the same bug, I may begin to consider the MS OS a blessing rather than wasted money. Some of us have to produce results with our computers, and although I've worked with unix all my life, making Linux a more desirable OS, I can live with a Windows OS until Linux can produce a less buggy 'stable' upgrade. Sorry if I seem to be frustrated, but the disappointments are beginning to escalate reducing productivity greatly. If someone was to create a bug report on bugzilla, please provide a link to it here, and I will add to it if that will help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075923 Title: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have a large directory, almost 50Gb and 45.000 files shared by samba on ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS server. I used to copy the whole directory regularly on my desktop, and execute a backup with deja dup on that. I did also often backup directly from the samba share. After upgrading my client to 12.10, copying the directory hangs randomly, sometimes after having copied just 1 Gb, others having almost completed the whole transfer. It just hangs, without any crash. I noted the also Deja -dup shows the same behaviour, now it's impossible to complete a backup from the share, it just hangs. It seems to me that a bug in the samba client might be the cause of these issues, since neither nautilus nor Deja-dup have problems with local large directories. my system: Ubuntu 12.10 AMD64 nautilus: 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4 deja-dup: deja-dup 24.0-0ubuntu1 smbclient 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 samba-common: 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 samba-common-bin: 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: nautilus 1:3.5.90.really.3.4.2-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-18.29-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-18-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Nov 7 12:05:58 2012 GsettingsChanges: b'org.gnome.nautilus.window-state' b'geometry' b"'825x550+853+471'" InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-10-22 (16 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
