which suggests a bit of misunderstanding about what gvfsd is.
AIUI it's a daemon (hence the d), and not in anyone's PATH,
which is why you have to find out where it's running from and
what might be consulting the value of GVFS_DISABLE_FUSE.
Also I think the service is called gvfs-daemon (but there may
be other related ones involved).

As for doing exercises, I don't have gvfs* installed, nor any DE, so I wouldn't know where to start. Drifting a litle, I do remember being surprised how easy it is for devices to be mounted twice, having had difficulty myself (mount would complain the device was already mounted). It turned out that, because the device I tried using was originally mounted readonly, I also had to set ro in the second mount command for it to succeed. Cheers, David.
Please advise as to the best way to set an environment variable on startup before gvfs, et al load.
