That error comes from lsof which cannot access ~/.gvfs because root != shirish. Pass -w into lsof to suppress that warning. <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 8:51 AM, shirish <<a href="mailto:shirishag75@gmail.com">shirishag75@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Hi all, Please look at this bug <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/225361" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/225361</a> . Now I'm looking for a way so I can use sudo to do my stuff without it coming in every time. For e.g. I'm having something like this :- Pass 1 of 10, 1/25 (4%): 502.1 frags/MB /usr/sbin/popularity-contest lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/shirish/.gvfs Output information may be incomplete. Fully defragmented! This output is from a tool called pyfrag which was made by John Dong quite sometime ago. <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=169551" target="_blank">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=169551</a> Although using that tool may or may not be good, but getting that sort of an output certainly isn't helpful. Can I do something about it. Specifically lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/shirish/.gvfs Output information may be incomplete. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/</a> <a href="http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com" target="_blank">http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com</a> 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list <a href="mailto:Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com">Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss</a> </blockquote></div>
