Ubuntu 13.04 Bug: gvfs smb Nautilus freeze hangs on copy files from a Samba Share

gvfs-smb Bug #1075923 (seen on Debian+Ubuntu+Centos..more..)

Workaround:

downgrade gvfs-* to Version 1.12 of 12.10 with:

  • add /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main
deb-src http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu precise main

  • run: sudo apt-get update
  • install synaptic: sudo apt-get install synaptic
  • run synaptic: sudo synaptic
  • remove all gvfs-* nautilus with synaptics (REALLY CHECK ALL! see „dpkg -l | grep gvfs“)
  • search gvfs-*, select, press CTRL+E (Force Menu)
  • select: gvfs-* Versions 1.12
  • install by run install button
  • search and install nautilus again..

Voila…Test Nautilus copy 1TB Files without freeze
