Public bug reported:
I'm running Ubuntu Oneiric 64 bit, with all -updates, -proposed,
-backports, -extra etc sources and also the gnome3-team ppa as well as
ricotz' gnome shell testing ppa enabled.
I'm seeing the following problem:
I am able to mount/unmount volumes from the GNOME Disk Utility just
fine, but automounting the drives in Nautilus doesn't work. Neither does
accessing any of the virtual drives like trash://, computer://
network:// or any smb shares. The graphical error message simply says
"action not supported" (although all gvfs-related packages are
installed).
I'm figuring this has to have something to do with a gvfs error, but
purging and reinstalling all gvfs- and nautilus-related packages didn't
remedy the situation. Unfortunately, I can't find any gvfs-related logs
to provide any error messages (where should I look?). Using nautilus via
gdb doesn't show any errors.
(Interestingly, mounting an external drive manually leads to it showing
up in nautilus under the "Computer" category and not under "Devices" as
before.)
This is especially a pain in the ass because some programs like Deja Dup
seem to rely on gvfs information, so even if I mount my external USB
drive manually, Deja Dup will not recognize it and not start the backup.
I think this bug started appearing after a recent update from ricotz'
testing ppa, but I'm not sure and I'd rather not go through the arduous
process of rolling back to the stock packages if there's any other way
to fix this.
Sorry I can't provide any more information right now. If you hint me in
the right direction I can probably provide more details.
