same here on all my Ubuntu 12.10 machines. for now removed gvfs-fuse and installed cifs-utils, created entry in /etc/fstab like
//192.168.30.1/filestore /media/shares/filestore cifs username=someuser,password=somepassword,_netdev 0 0 and works perfectly. Thanks Kanehekill for that one. I dumped Fedora off my new laptop due to this bug, my laptop is for office use and I only use Fedora for the office machines but I use Ubuntu at home (warm and friendly at home :-) So was much to my surprise to see the same bug in Ubuntu 12.10 As as been said many times already, this is a biggie for almost anyone. I couldn't even copy a small 100Mb folder containing 40 pictures from my file-server (Ubuntu 12.04 which works fine). Really do hope this get sorted out soon, I hate it when I recommend things to people and they then have problems with it. At least I can say "don't use 12.10, get 12.04" for now -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075923 Title: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
