I had exactly the same problem on my Acer Aspire 5930 laptop. I am using Ubuntu 11.04. I just removed and reinstalled nautilus using the following commands:
$sudo apt-get remove nautilus $sudo apt-get install nautilus Everything is working fine now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731863 Title: file manager not responding -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
