I did: - sudo apt-get install -t oneiric-proposed nautilus - logout/login
I tried starting in ~ and navigated to ~/Desktop/data/projects I can now do so by typing "De<CR>...Pause ca.3-4 seconds...da<CR>.... Pause ca.3-4 seconds....pro<CR>" which was not possible before the fix. But the need to pause is very annoying. Before the bug appeared, I could execute the full procedure in far less than 1 second. During the pause the search-box is still visible with the old content. It does not close and it does not clear after the directory change. After the pause the searchbox will vanish, and after a keystroke it will reappear containing only the key from the keystroke. I do not experience that enabling/disabling the statusbar influences things. I'm using a x64 machine that has been upgraded from 10.04, btw. -- 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/857710 Title: File selection by typing is buggy sometimes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/857710/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
