Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: fusesmb

Hi,
I don't know if this bug is in fusesmb or somewhere else but let's see...
I use XUbuntu 8.10, fusesmb is 0.8.7-1.

While looking around whether XFCE had a smb browser I found this thread:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304131
So I installed fusesmb, added my User to the group fuse, created /media/network 
and did chown <myuser>:fuse and chmod 777 on it. Then i ran fusesmb 
/media/network and it worked so far.

Now the problem:
When I access a share with thunar or pcmanfm (or other gnome/XFCE/gtk?? 
programs), fusesmb will abort randomly and display an error dialog "Transport 
endpoint is not connected."
At this point I can no longer access /media/network 
ls -l /media gives
d????????? ? ?    ?       ?                ? network
I can still cd into /media/network but ls (even sudo ls) gives "Permission 
denied".

I attached a log what fusesmb -d /media/network gives by accessing the
share (I shortened it a bit).


On the other hand fusesmb seems to work well when not accessing the shares with 
other programs than thunar or pcmanfm. With Dolphin I can browse the share 
without any problems. On commandline I can cd into any directory, ls any files 
and play movies with mplayer etc.
There are some applications that break the fusesmb connection. But very 
randomly.
I can play movies with VLC, mplayer, Totem, Kaffeine. No problems here.
I can open pictures with Kolourpaint, Firefox, Gimp ...
With fspot, ristretto, gpic break fusesmb, but very randomly.


I'd guess that programs that use a "gnomish" way to list the files in a 
directory (the 3 imageviewer I named have a list of how many files there are in 
the directory), are causing fusesmb to "Abort".
