Hi Guys,
Hopefully someone out there will have some ideas about how to fix this annoyance i have always had since when i first started to use kubuntu about 18 months ago.
I have an ubuntu server running several samba share directories for media and such like. When my kubuntu laptop loses it's connection to these shares (which are mounted in the FSTAB file) , i.e the wireless signal goes out of range, the laptop will hang if i happen to be browsing the remote share in dolphin or another application like openoffice. If the wireless connection is re-established then the laptop unfreezes and carries on normally. Is there some sort of network timeout setting that can be altered somwhere? If this happens with my windows machine, it waits for about 10s and put's up a dialogue warning box abount not being able to connect to the share?
Thanks In Advance
Chris
