The gvfs version on my system is 1.14.0-0. OK, so I tried installing and using just Thunar 1.4.0 on top of my Mate desktop to see if it would work : not.
So I went further and installed XFCE4 4.10 besides my Mate, logged out and in XFCE. Tried a few copies, deletes, renames, creation of folders, copies of few larges files, copies of a lot of small files... Verdict : inside XFCE4, everything seems to be working just fine. So unless XFCE does not use gvfs, the problem really seems to be a bad interaction between Mate (Gnome) and gvfs 1.14.0-0... Can anyone try with KDE ? I really don't have the disk space to install this desktop environment on my aging computer. -- 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
