I also experience this issue (Ubuntu 10.10, up to date, amd64) when opening a directory containing a svg file embedding many big jpeg pictures. (no tiff at all)
Actually, it occurs with 2 similar svg files. The 1st one does embed all jpeg files and the preview doesn't even have the time to be generated. The second one only contains links to the jpeg pictures, so a blank preview is generated. However, *In both cases*, Nautilus eventually quits responding and I have to kill it. In the first case, during the preview calculation, in the second case, shortly after selecting the svg file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305546 Title: Nautilus crashing/freezing when opening folder with svg file -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
