Bugzilla – Bug 127509
Unable to delete Network Icon from Desktop
Last modified: 2005-11-24 09:56:43 UTC
I have tried to connect to a Windows Server via the menu “places, Connect to Server” (Orte, Verbindung zu Server... in German). An icon to access the server has been created and placed on the desktop and in the menu :///computer. Until now, I was not able to find any way to delete the icon: It is owned by user root and I was not able to locate it in the file system.
Ick. I can reproduce this. I made an ssh service on my desktop (corresponding to a machine where it turns out that wasn't going to work), and there's no apparent way to remove it. If I select it and press Delete, I get an error suggesting I unmount it from the context menu. Unfortunately, there's no unmount option there. The only apparent solution is "gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /desktop/gnome/connected_servers/1" (your number may vary).

Temporary information. The contect menu option does appear under natilus tree view in left pane where you can unmount volume with out need for gconf. Atleast that is the case for samba/smb mount volumes.

Created attachment 56210 [details] Updated nautilus-submount.patch This fixes the problem. The patch was not checking the type of volumes; network stuff comes as GNOME_VFS_VOLUME_TYPE_CONNECTED_SERVER, while file system stuff comes as GNOME_VFS_VOLUME_TYPE_MOUNTPOINT. I'll submit this to autobuild in a second.
OK, submitted to STABLE and PLUS.
Re-opening until we ship an update.
We have multiple user duplicates and this is a terrible UI problem. AJ, I'd like to ship an update here for 10.0.
Ok, Maintenance-Tracker-2721
Should I submit a patchinfo/swamp for this?
I'll have gary do this for 10.0
patchinfo submitted.
Thanks a bunch, Gary :)
Closing.
