This is driving me crazy! I was away for four days and had no internet and unfortunately chose that time to do a clean install of Xubuntu Lucid. When Thunar stopped working I tried everything, even clean installing another three times (one was for a sound bug that gave me no sound).
For me, it seems to not matter what view the pane is in - detailed, icons, or compact. I can do one operation then it is as though the pane is empty. I cannot select anything or move within directories though interestingly the breadcrumb navigation and shortcuts in the tree still work. Even the mouse wheel lets me scroll the pane contents - I just can't left or right click anything. I tried changing all my permissions on my folders and files to no avail. I tried thunar as sudo and that actually seemed to work properly until that too stopped. I tried deleting the ~/.config/thunar config folder. No effect, though if I do that AND reboot I am able to do maybe five operations before it stops responding. And on some reboots I am able to use left and right click for a few operations having done nothing at all. It is very difficult to narrow down what the bug is but it effectively makes thunar useless. -- thunar select freezes after using mouse to select folders ("detailed view" mode) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/520118 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
