This is my solution, too... except I use blackbox.
Anyone knows how to get rid of that ~/.gvfs

I run a very simple system. I use Fluxbox as my window manager, and
try to strip my machines (especially my studio machine) down to the be turned off. I like Fedora, I really do, but
I'd love to see it
give more control back to the user and not assume I need every package

I started out Linux with Fedora. When I decided I liked KDE better than GNOME,
I couldn't make the GNOME go away. I would often see BOTH desktops appear at
startup and shutdown (very uncool when running "older" hardware). I went out in
search of an OS that respected my preferences (I ended up with Debian).
Many moons have passed since then... perhaps Fedora is better about it these
days. But at the time I didn't hold out much hope. Fedora is (or was) linked
with RHEL, and the goal of RHEL is a uniform, controlled, stable, consistent,
enterprise platform that will compete with Windows for business use. While it's
cool that someone's doing that... it's not what I want, so I jumped off.
