Re: nfs home directory and google chrome.

[Kenneth Johansson <ken@kenjo.org>]

So this is just an update to how to avoid this problem.

I switched to nfs v3 and no more issues. Since the switch chrome have 
not stopped syncing with the google server even once. suspend resume 
causes no issues and everything looks ok.  So it's clear that 
google-chrome currently does not like nfs v4 and I need chrome to work 
more than I need to run nfs v4.
