Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
1) $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Natty (development branch) Release: 11.04 (But if I recall correctly, it was also an issue in Maverick and earlier releases) 2) $ apt-cache policy nautilus nautilus: Installed: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Candidate: 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 Version table: *** 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3) I connected a USB drive in my computer that has just been formatted as FAT using Ubuntu. Then I open Nautilus, show the Tree view in the left column, open some folder and try do drag & drop a file from the opened folder to the item corresponding to the USB drive in the Tree view. I expected Nautilus to allow me to copy or move a file like this. 4) Instead, Nautilus doesn't allow this. If I drag & drop over any other item in the Tree view it works (including sub folders of the USB drive). Over the root of the USB drive it doesn't. If I change from the Tree view to the Places view, I can drag & drop over the USB drive without a problem.
