** Attachment added: "strace output"

** Description changed:

- after pressing file->open GUI apps hang for ~20 seconds before
+ Intrepid: after pressing file->open GUI apps hang for ~20 seconds before
  displaying filesystem dialog
  
  Note: Although this example describes gedit, the problem is happening
  across many GUI apps including firefox.
  
  When I press file->open while using gedit the process freezes and takes
  anywhere between 10 and 30 seconds to open the filesystem browse window
  (GtkFileChooser?).  Gedit behaves this way every time I press
  file->open, or file->Save As.  I've attached a trace using "strace -Ff
  -tt gedit" which shows this behavior at the following position:
  
  11504 11:31:47.695478 poll( <unfinished ...>
  11506 11:31:56.591242 <... poll resumed> [{fd=8, events=POLLIN}, {fd=10, 
events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN}, 
{fd=14, events=POLLIN}], 5, 8893) = 0
  11506 11:31:56.591401 gettimeofday({1226518316, 591448}, NULL) = 0
  
  If gedit knows the filename and I select file->save, there is no delay
  in writing the file to disk.  Also, when I use bash under gnome-terminal
  I see no delays.  Since I don't see everyone filing this same bug his
  leads me to believe I may have a missing dependancy for gnome, gvfs or
  dbus.
  
+ This began immediately on a fresh installation of Intrepid.  Hardy did
+ not have this behaviour.
+ 
  Can someone please help me diagnose this problem?
  
  Thanks much,
  -Terry
