I've tried the following: 1. In one terminal window, I do: $ sudo /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd
Now I can see a gvfsd daemon running as root user: $ ps aux | grep gvfsd$ ricardo 6513 0.0 0.2 6832 2200 ? S 18:53 0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd root 7972 0.0 0.2 6700 2104 ? S 19:22 0:00 /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd 2. In another terminal window, I type: $ gksu "/usr/bin/zenity --file- selection" However, the problem is still present. I can't see why Hardy's behavior is right and Jaunty's behavior isn't. I would like to investigate a bit more, but I haven't the enough knowledge to do that. -- Nautilus uses device names (floppy0, sda1) instead of humanized names (Floppy Drive, 151.8 GB Media) when running with admin rights https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
