good thing i know exactly what this bug report is about...

so, because ltspfs mounts in /tmp/.ltspfs-username/* and then bind
mounts into /media/username/*, gnome-vfs sees this as two different
devices. apparently this does not happen in ubuntu. no idea for KDE or
other systems.

i think it would be possible, if not desireable, to reconfigure the
mount to happen directly into /media/username. this would require
patches to lbmount and ltspfsmounter, at least.

probably even more desireable would be something like setting up virtual
hal devices:

  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/ltspfs-virtual-hal-devices

though, there's something nice about the simplicity of just mounting the
filesystem.

live well,
  vagrant
