Thanks - a most impressive speed of response.
I've installed it together with gvfs and had a very superficial look, but it isn't playing nicely. It sees local partitions but won't allow the creation of bookmarks to cater for automatic mounting and doesn't see the network shares at all. I'll continue to investigate but hopefully, Zendrael will revisit and provide some info about the system he/she has working mentioned in Reply #6.

Hi:
I found this " GIGOLO GUI" in XUBUNTU 10.10 and I used it there and I think it is an outstanding
tool. It is compact, eficcient and nice. I really would like to have a TC 3 extension from this tool, but I am afraid I do not have the
knowledge to compile it from source.
Did somebody do this already?
Or could somebody give me some help and hints how to do it by myself?

It seems as though we may have similar goals...

Earlier posts in this thread discuss Gigolo and Juanito was kind enough to package it for the TC3 repo. Unfortunately, it does not work as described for Lubuntu. The cause may be related to this topic:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=7610.0
It points towards using GVFS in conjunction with FUSE, however for the reasons given in the latter topic GVFS has been compiled without FUSE support.
In reply #11 of this current topic I provided initial feedback of testing Gigolo from the TC repo but it is inconclusive. To test further, I suspect, may require a version of GVFS which is compiled with FUSE support. Would any of the regular packagers be interested in providing a testing package? If so, it might be clearly differentiated from the current GVFS by giving a different name and testing status.
In reply #5 of this current topic, an idea was suggested to use LinNeighbourhood and replacing smbmount (no longer working) with a script (cifs-utils?). Has anyone tried this?

Hi: thank you for your post. I did not know that there is gigolo.tcz already in the TC3 repo.
Did you try it out?
Do you have the knowledge and the time to fix current problems?
Does the new version 3.4.1 or 3.5 have any effect - so that it might be easier to fix current problems
