I normally run KDE but tried Gnome for a day or two just for laughs, and now I see a .gvfs in my home directory, which I can't even run "ls -l" or "file" on, including as root. I get "cannot access .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected". If I hadn't read somewhere about the new GVFS filesystem I would be totally at a loss as to what this was, and with no idea as to how to find out. poc -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
