Here's a screen video showing me trying unsuccessfully to add a bookmark via drag'n'drop and also via the bookmark menu.
Note that in the (other) user account where I already have a bookmarks section and where adding bookmarks works, I get a horizontal black line displayed in the left-hand section when I drag a folder over it. The line moves between other bookmarks as feedback to indicate where the bookmark will be added when I release the button. There is no such line displayed here. This machine in the video is one that I created in VirtualBox by installing from scratch. (I know that in the video nautilus is displaying 'Rubbish Bin' as its title, but that a separate bug, since I'm clearly working in the home folder, and because this bug happens even if nautilus is displaying 'Home Folder' as its title.) ** Attachment added: "trying-to-add-bookmark.ogv" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/827049/+attachment/2801538/+files/trying-to-add-bookmark.ogv -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827049 Title: add bookmark is broken in oneiric's nautilus Status in Nautilus: Confirmed Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I can no longer add a bookmark to nautilus in the current Oneiric. If you try and drag a folder to the very bottom of the bookmarks section immediately after opening a nautilus window, it doesn't get added to the bookmarks. This also prevents newly-created users from ever adding a bookmark. If you drag a folder to the middle of the bookmarks section, it gets added, and at this point you can drag folders to the very bottom of the bookmark section (at least until you close nautilus and reopen it). Choosing 'Add Bookmark' from the often menu does nothing.
