Serge, it works for mounting. You are right. However, when switching off / rebooting the computer, it hangs for ~2 minutes. I think this is because OS first switches off the network interface and then tries to unmount the remote drive. This unmounting obviously times out because there is no network any more. But this timeout is 2 minutes of wasted time. This is not a solution me thinks.

After the upgrade my network drive does not mount. fstab //192.168.178.73/Thuis /media/Thuis cifs noserverino,guest,user=,nounix,_netdev,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777 0 0 This worked until the upgrade. When trying to mount I get: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.178.73/Thuis, missing codepage or helper program, or other error (for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program) In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so. And if I do dmesg | tail, it gives: [ 21.141585] cgroup: new mount options do not match the existing superblock, will be ignored [ 24.103109] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready [ 24.103661] forcedeth 0000:00:07.0 eth1: MSI enabled [ 31.195496] FS-Cache: Loaded [ 31.232146] FS-Cache: Netfs 'cifs' registered for caching [ 31.233761] Key type cifs.spnego registered [ 31.233773] Key type cifs.idmap registered [ 31.234020] CIFS VFS: No username specified [ 327.314333] CIFS VFS: No username specified [ 349.637971] CIFS VFS: No username specified Also see question https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/284714 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: gvfs 1.27.4-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-49.55~14.04.1-generic 3.19.8-ckt12 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-49-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia ApportVersion: 2.19.4-0ubuntu2 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: XFCE Date: Thu Feb 11 11:11:57 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-01-17 (25 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 14.04.3 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Beta i386 (20150805) SourcePackage: gvfs UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1544480/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
