I have just installed the release version of Raring Ringtail 13.04 and I can reproduce this bug! Quite shocked to experience it becuase I'm running the RELEASE version.
I'm sorry but I just don't buy the whole "Canonical has limited resources" and "there's lots to do" attitude. Are you playing at beaing a serious company or are you really a serious company? You ask people for donations and shove people those Amazon and other commercial apps/ads and activity is recorded by default (forcing people to opt out rather than in). There's a clear difference between providing a "college project"/"community project" product vs a "professional" product. From a college/community project you expect this kind of bugs and issues, but not from a professional product. And don't tell me that the free price tag is an excuse, because there are other FREE professional products out there that behave like professional products (no bugs or few bugs) and meet their users needs. Google search and email is an example. And yes, they do shove annoying ads at your face and they track your activities online, etc. You can complain all you want about that, but the fact remains that the Google product in terms of functionality is flawless. With Ubuntu on the other hand, it looks like we're getting the annoyance from the ads, lack of privacy via activity tracking and yet we have to put up with college-grade product. Yes, there are other distros that will have this bug, but at least those distros are real community projects that do not pretend to be a commercial product. From a user point of view, it is very tempting to go to one of those distros knowing that at least my privacy will be respected. Please do yourselves a favour and listen to your users' feedback if you want your product to survive and mature. You can do it. After all, as you said it yourself, Cannonical "is not a charity". So don't behave like one and please provide a PROFESSIONAL product. As a final point, I'd like to mention that I really like Unity and I think it's maturing quite well. It really makes Ubuntu be a real contender to other commercial OS like Apple and Windows. However, this is no excuse for not fixing basic functionality like copying files over a network. -- 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/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
