the bug has been opened on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/252046 "Just updated earlier today and had started burning a CD of an Ubuntu ISO using nautilus-cd-burner. Was prompted to file (this) bug. gvfs-backends 0.99.3-0ubuntu1
+ Trace 204015
Would be useful to know which of the strings in append_mount is NULL. If it is the uuid, I've just fixed this.
new downstream comment describes how to trigger the bug: "1) insert CD into CD-ROM drive. 2) run ``sudo powertop'' 3) after a while, at least on my laptop which is an HP Pavilion DV2815NR, powertop tells you to not let HAL poll the CD-ROM drive. 4) then eject the CD-ROM and re-insert it. 5) the open Rhythmbox."
I can confirm, that those instructions do trigger the bug for me
Actually, the above instructions only worked once for me, they weren't consistent. In my playing around, I discovered a MUCH more consistent bug and I posted here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=550076 It might be related
Well Matthias, seems as if it's fixed by now :) At least Ubuntu doesn't get new dups and don't, too. I'd say to close it in a few weeks unless anybody raises an issue.
