a most annoying difference between Ubuntu Gnome & Kubuntu

[O. Sinclair]

And still - as stated initially; Joe Average should not have to fiddle with
etc/fstab or other tricks to simply access files on a share. Thats where the
beauty of the Gnome VFS and Keyring lies. It just works. Note that I am a
Kubuntu-user myself but stuff like that makes me lean towards trying Gnome.
HATE Evolution though and love Kontact. Maybe I can run Kontact under
Gnome....
