This is still an issue in 12.04. First start: time thunar real 0m20.223s user 0m0.016s sys 0m0.008s
second start: time thunar real 0m0.057s user 0m0.012s sys 0m0.008s As workaround I suggest setting AutoMount =false in /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/network.mount and add following autostart entry: gvfs-mount network: > /dev/null && gvfs-ls network: > /dev/null I've attached an desktop file for this autostart entry; just copy it into $HOME/.config/autostart . ** Attachment added: "exemplary autostart desktop file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/775117/+attachment/3093754/+files/Thunar%20accelerator.desktop -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775117 Title: Thunar hangs on first launch of each session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/775117/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
