I've a folder which is a sshfs mount, and as such, some information about the users/groups does not exist on the current system. In Thunar, opening the said folder, the contents of the folders are briefly flashed (during ~0.2 seconds) and then Thunar decides to return to the previous/parent folder. In my case, the group information is the one that doesn't exist on the system I made the mount on (the userid and name match on both systems), so I'm guessing that's what causing the return to the previous/parent folder.
Do you run famd (and built Thunar with support for FAM)? Because sshfs and famd don't work well together, i.e. famd will tell Thunar that the folder is deleted and as such Thunar will leave the folder. The suggested solution is to use Gamin instead of FAM.
It's true. I've tried with Gamin and it works fine now. Thanks.
Ok.
