Hello:
Yerterday I found this curious "problem":
I have a Debian GNU/Linux machine that exports a file system on the
local network using NFS.
I mount the filesystem on my NetBSD Thinkpad laptop with:
#mount 192.168.1.200:/nfsexport /root/directory
I start XFCE session in the NetBSD laptop. I open thunar file explorer,
it works fine surfing on the Debian machine files. I can edit them fine
from the NetBSD computer. It works fine with libreoffice files, for
example.
If I open a terminal and type "vim file.txt" it works just fine.
The problem arises when I right click on a txt file and try to open them
by mistake using Vim editor (right click, open with Vim). After doing
that, XFCE freezes hard, computer is alive and I end killing all XFCE
session to overcome it. I first tried to kill only vim process but it
did not solve the crash. Mounting point continues working fine, I
restart XFCE and it works normally.
Can it be due to the fact that vim command expect to work inside a
terminal window and not alone? Why XFCE freezes that way? Have to test
what happens with "vim -g", I am out home now.
Regards.
Ramiro.
