The same thing happens to me. Whenever I try to open my images folder, it freezes, and in the build/ directory of an scons project, it only does so when hidden files are switched on. I also found that if I create an image with the gimp while the folder I save it in is open, nautilus crashes. (at least in the scons directory)
I think has something to do with thumbnails, since turning them off seems to solve the problem. Another clue as to the bug's properties is that I got a message regarding bonobo-activation-server's inability to find "the right factory", and that I should kill bonobo-activation-server and restart nautilus. This didn't work, but I believe that is evidence that the thumbnails are the culprit. I've tried deleting the thumbnails in ~/.thumbnails, but in the end the only thing that stops the bug is turning off thumbnails for all files. -- Nautilus freezes when opening some directories https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
