I don't know if there is some relation between bugs #603080 and #582169. The latter (at least for me) happens when trying to connect to a server (via SMB or FTP): the service is refused because of a DBUS timeout. Nothing else happens, no application is slowed down, the system won't freeze. Some now and then, the DBUS timeout is followed by a crash of GVFS (not always).
In both cases, I'm not able to generate a backtrace. The DBUS timout pops up from a process which is unpredictably forked from the DBUS daemon: so I have no chance to attach it from GDB. GVSF starts in an unpredictable moment and then crash just less then a second later, so it is not possible to get the process' PID and pass it to GDB.
Is there any trick to trace fast-generating or fast-forking processes from GDB?
I would like to spend sometime in finding more data and details about this bug: please, tell me how could I help You in finding the real problem and maybe its solution...
Before May (before I upgraded to Lucid) I never experienced such problem, nor with Karmic nor with Hardy ...
