Thunar taking its sweet time to open an external disk

Hi
This problem only occured after a full system upgrade, so I'm not sure where to begin with the debugging. After the full system update, when connecting an external USB drive, the first time I try to access it, Thunar basically hangs for a good 30 seconds. All instances of Thunar freeze. After around 30 seconds, it displays the contents of the drive. Any subsequent accesses are fine.
This issue seems to be limited to thunar, because I could access the contents of the disk instantly via console and my audio player could access the files instantly too. So this happens only with thunar, on the initial access, after mounting the drive. This seems to only affect the externel USB2 HD. I can access optical disks instantly.
As I said, it didn't happen before I did a complete system upgrade.
Perhaps it's kernel related? Maybe I should try dropping back to kernel 2.6.21 ?
I've even compiled my own custom vanilla, patch free 2.6.22.1 kernel, no change.
Any ideas? Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks

I found the older kernel 2.6.21 on the Duke install CD. You can find them on some mirrors, like: ftp://archlinux.puzzle.ch/iso/
To downgrade a package:
Go to the folder where you have the package stored, then "update" the package to the older version:
pacman -U package.tar.gz
If you want to hold a package at the installed version, add tha line to /etc/pacman.conf
IgnorePkg = packagename (e.g. kernel26)
I hope this helps!

    Hi guys,
    i have done system copy from Production to Quality server completely.
    after that i started SAP on Quality server, it is taking too much time for opening SAP transactions (it is going in compilation mode).
    i started SGEN, but it is giving time_out errors. please help me on this issue.
    MY hardware details on quality server

    Hi,
    >i started SGEN, but it is giving time_out errors. please help me on this issue.
    You are supposed to run SGEN as a batch job and so, it should be possible  to get time out errors.
    I've seen Full SGEN lasting from 3 hours on high end systems up to 8 full days on PC hardware...

    I have just upgraded to Mavericks and have been using Time Machine on an external disk with Snow Leopard.  Can I continue to backup with Time Machine on the same external disk or do I need a new disk since the operating system has changed?

    Hi there,
    I found that Time Machine in Mavericks will sort it all out for you. You shouldn't need to buy another backup drive, unless you have insufficient space left and can't afford to delete whats on there. It should just work fine.

  • Can I use time capsule as an external disk only (not as a wireless router)

    how can I use my time capsule as an external disk only. I have had problems with time capsule as a wifi router.

    Sure.. but it is still a network drive and must use wireless or ethernet.. the best way is plugged into the main router in bridge mode.. but you can use it in secondary network.. although the setup is more complicated.
    It is also less good than a simple external drive.. which is cheaper, faster and more reliable. Consider if the TC doesn't suit your needs get rid of it and opt for simple external drive.

  • My external library 100 GB on a 2TB drive is taking a long time to open.

    Hey there,
    I recently moved my library to an external drive.  When I tried to load the external drive, it said it needed to repair and I let it happen overnight because it was taking a long time.
    Now it seems to just freeze when I try to load the external library.  Can someone let me know if there is something I can do to make this process speed up?  Should I move some of my projects to another library and keep it off-line?
    Thanks,
    Austin

    Could it possibly be due to videos stored in the aperture library?  I think one of the folders has multiple GB of video...  Just a thought.
    If Aperture is freezing on opening, this can be caused by corrupted or incompatible media, but it would not explain the original error message your reported - "permissions".
    When the repair finishes, try to launch Aperture with the Shift-key held down. This will defer the generation of previews. If media cannot beprocessed, Aperture will hang, when it tries to generate the previews for those images or videos. If you can get Aperture to launch after deferring the preview generation, you could open the Activity window (Window > Show Activity) and then selectively try to generate previews for your last imported images and videos  (Photos > update preview). The Activity window will show, what is currently processed, and perhaps you can spot, which of the files is causing the hang.

    Hi,
    As the issue you are facing is that the webi report is taking too long to open and refresh, I would recommend the below steps.
    1. Check whether the webi report is set to "Refreh on Open" if yes probably you need to uncheck, save the report and open it again.
    2. Try to run the same query in the backend database and see if it returns the data.
    3. Try to run refresh the report for a smaller data selection.
    4. make the report run on a specific webi server, and when refreshing have your BOBJ admin monitor that process to see if the process is going in a hung state, using High memory etc.
    5. restart webi process and run again
    Thanks,
