wtf is #gvfs ?
I can't believe this crap. When I mount an smb with thunar or nautilus it will result in a mounted remote filesystem share that is SUPER slow and I even cannot open files at all. Also it get's mounted in some madeup subdirectory in /run/media or some stupid path nobody would ever search in.

When I use mount.cifs instead it's super fast and works transparently.
Who invents such crappy piece of wannabe software? I don't see the benefit of it though.

MB-Freigaben in Linux systemweit mounten: Warum dein NAS-Ordner im Programm fehlt und wie du ihn fixierst

Ich erkläre, wie man NAS-Ordner mounten kann, wenn sie in bestimmten Programmen fehlen.

Ok, caught in the #Debian trap. I‘d need a newer #gvfs or #smb implementation in hope things are fixed then. But #LMDE is even slower than #Debian, so no updates yet.

* También depende del entorno gráfico: #gvfs (#gnome, #xfce) o el equivalente en #kde (creo que es #kio), que suelen montar en /run/media.

* Configuraciones personalizadas de #polkit pueden hacer que los usuarios puedan montar discos en diferentes ubicaciones.

* El mismo udisks2 permite cambiar configuraciones para montar automáticamente en otros directorios.

* Y por supuesto, el montaje manual y uso de /etc/fstab puede permitirnos montar directorios no estándar.

Finally found the correct answer today to the question of why, over 5 years since the #Samba project disabled the deprecated SMB1 protocol by default, GUI file browsers in #Linux still cannot browse SMB2 or SMB3 network shares.

It's a bug in #GNOME's #gvfs that apparently no one wants to fix or even can fix, and it affects all file browsers that use it.

I cannot simply click on my NAS unit and have it displays shares and login to it. I have to choose "Connect to Server…" from the menus.

I still need some more feel at home config help. As you can see here I love having vertical gradients on my displays, but in KDE and Vallpaper I have not found how I can set gradients on the side of my wallpaper which are deliberately not 16:9 since I love to look at (vertical) gradients. Where do I need to look to achieve that? Is there a KDE action that I need to define for all my 20 KDE desktops?

As you see here I already have configured the minimal amount of users that I need in my K Desktop Environment

The next phase will take a bit of time because I need to fine tune critical small keyboard shortcuts so that they work as transparently as they do in xFace with muscle memory

Im starting to achieve platform distro OS translucency regarding more and more projects. Now I can smoothly work in my hugo projects from any distro I want in Linux. All I need to do is keep the copies I work on in sync.
Since I dont run zfs jet on a centralized HDD / SSD I simply use mc -a to do the job manually.
Normally it should be trivial, but the hugo projects want rm -Rf dir otherwise old files with similar size can be changed, thus screwing up continuity

Since my KDE MX install is smoothing out in cfg features I need, which is a combo of XFce components and KDE, I can smoothly switch to the KDE distro and work further while I tune it.

I chose to keep XFce seperate from KDE distro wise due to size constraints I;ve put on my boot partition

Um eine lib für #XMPP zu testen, habe ich ein kleines Demo Programm geschrieben. Für die ersten Schritt ja ok, aber wirklich nachhaltig ist es auch nicht.

Eine Idee ist eine #xmpp #shell zu programmieren. Dort kann man dann XMPP mit command line Befehlen benutzen.

Es gibt doch GVfs — Virtual File System,... ob man damit dann vielleicht sein #Jabber account als file system abbilden könnte.

echo "Wir treffen uns in 10 min am großen Baum" > /buddy/user@domain/chat
Dann wäre Jabber auch endlich mal ein #Messenger für Normale User. 😉

Ich glaube ich muss mir mal #gvfs ansehen,...
