Title: <RESOLVED>a little issue
Post by: mdre808 on November 19, 2020, 04:12:01 PM
Ciao! After I upgrade to semi-rolling bulls eye, I suddenly found that as I insert my smart phone to PC, it did not link as a USB or a MTP as before, it just did the recharge. Althought not big deal, but I still feel rather inconveinient.

If you are using gtk based file manager ( for example thunar, caja, gnome-files etc.) installing gvfs-backends should do the trick. Don't forget about reboot.

And would you do my a second favor after helping me open media files via the smart phone?  You kown because of my super-slow web connection. the second one is that qbittorrent sometimes seems to  slowing my old PC ( a old notebook)down. This had happened before. It is not a big issue though, would be much better if resolved. I use PCmanFm, the default file manager.
