Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
This may be a bug in Nautilus See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10159042 Twice already, the desktop has switched to showing this behavior: The desktop does not show any files or folders. When I try to drag a file there from Nautilus the "drop" of drag-and-drop fails. It is not accepting any input -- e.g., if I right click it, I get no context menu. Yet the ~/Desktop folder appears fine in Nautilus; there are some files and folders there; and I can move new ones there. I ran gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop The checkbox was checked, i.e. value true. I unchecked it; then rechecked it. The problem went away. The problem occurred twice. I don't know what caused it.\ Gnome 2.30.2 Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: gconf-editor 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-25.45-generic 2.6.32.21+drm33.7 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-25-generic i686 Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Nov 25 21:55:28 2010 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release i386 (20091028.5) ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gconf-editor ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 lucid -- The behavior of the desktop keeps changing to the equivalent of /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop = false https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/681558 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
