GVFSD-FUSE(1)                    User Commands 
GVFSD-FUSE(1)

NAME
       gvfsd-fuse - Fuse daemon for gvfs

SYNOPSIS
       gvfsd-fuse PATH

DESCRIPTION
       gvfsd-fuse maintains a fuse mount to make gvfs backends available to
       POSIX applications. The mount point for the fuse filesystem is 
provided
       by the [PATH] argument.

       gvfsd-fuse is normally started by gvfsd(1). In this case, the mount
       point is $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/gvfs or $HOME/.gvfs.

OPTIONS
       -d
           Enable fuse debug output. This implies -f.

       -f
           Run in the foreground.

       -s
           Run single-threaded.

       -o OPTION
           Set a fuse-specific option. See the fuse documentation for a 
list
           of these.

EXIT STATUS
       On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.

The things I tried are naive.  I don't know, or have forgotten, where to 
put commands that run that early in the process.  I run the latest MATE 
out of Bullseye, 1.24.x-y.  There is a partial installation (a 
"minimal") Gnome 3 installed, and various Gnome-related programs.  XCFE 
is installed, for emergencies.  (I am a bad typist, and am rather 
dependent on GUIs.)  I load MATE by default at startup.

/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd --no-fuse
Failed to acquire daemon name, perhaps the VFS daemon is already running?
