** Description changed:

  Have a newish install of Intrepid 8.10 fully up-to-date. I can make smb
  connections to a Debian fileserver running Samba - these appear in the
- Places menu. BUT they do NOT appear in the Firefox 3.0.7 'Save Page as'
- dialog. I need this to save (and open) stuff to and from network shares.
+ Places menu.
  
- Firefox 3.0.7 is on several other computers running Hardy; same network,
- same shares. I conclude its an aspect of Mozilla / Intrepid integration.
+ BUT these connections do NOT appear in the Firefox 3.0.7 'File > Open'
+ or 'File > Save Page as' dialogs.
  
- Do I need to install some other package to get this working ?
+ Similarly with Jaunty / Mozilla 3.0.10.
+ 
+ Meanwhile Firefox 3.0.7 / Hardy shows smb connections as expected.
+ 
+ In all cases users' home directory has .gvfs folder with connection name
+ eg 'prosserg on esther2' present
