Not a bug in nautilus. The problem exists somewhere else. Thanks to a comment upstream, I tracked the problem down to the file /proc/kcore. This file alone is reported as 128TB, even by the 'ls' command.
According to: http://www.unixguide.net/linux/faq/04.16.shtml The size of this file should be equal to the amount of memory in your system. Does that make this a kernel bug? -- Size of contents in volume reported is incorrect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/666033 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
