    home/$user directory files

    I cannot see contents of home/user search hangs... any ideas on how
    to fix? Can however go to subdirectories using Places/Bookmarks.
    Search doesn't work either.
    I was thinking it was a gconf problem but now am leaning toward gvfs troubles. Any help appreciated.

    Could please explain more. Are you using gnome search or using find command?

    I googled out this URL : Unix/Linux "find" Command Tutorial

    RE:home/$user directory files

    Problem is solved. It was a .gvfs problem.

    Because the vfs-fuse-daemon is call from the code, we could not do any setting to disable it. But we can cheat it as do above. As I know the vfs-fuse-daemon is only need in limitd cases.
    It took a hard reboot afterwards but it worked fine. All is good.

    Thanks for trying though.
