Ah, now here's something that might be of interest. I upgraded to Nautilus Elemental today, and the bug is gone: I can plug in an external storage device and drag-and-drop to it immediately without any additional clicks. Terrific! This is Nautilus version 2.32.0, with embedded terminal and clutter

I'm afraid so. On Ubuntu 10.10, upgraded from 10.04, fully patched as at 17 Oct 10 1734 GMT, the problem persists. When Nautilus is open, and an external hard disk is then plugged in, the disk appears in Nautilus's tree view, but no content can be dropped on it until it is clicked or expanded. If y

Oh, I agree it's not directly relevant to the bug. But it does demonstrate the lengths to which I had to resort to work around this (and other) Nautilus problems. I plug an external, two-partition USB disk in, both partitions appear in Nautilus (neither is available as a drop target), but I don't

Yes, still an issue. Exactly the same steps as described above. I actually don't use Gnome any more (massive Nautilus performance problems and crashiness around the turn of the year pushed me over to KDE and it's GREAT!), but I just logged into a session there on a fully patched Lucid beta and yes,

I really don't understand the papercut thing... it seems to me, based on Vish's criteria, that this is actually a perfect example (it is easily reproducible, is in the default install [has been since 8.04!], would affect everybody, and [I'm guessing] is easy to fix). But anyway, I don't really want

I'd suggest caution before applying this patch. I did so and starting the new nautilus apparently destroyed all data that was on my desktop. Not a great start. -- drag and drop images or video into subfolder will prevent folder from loading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454297 You received this

Same problem here, never happened prior to Karmic but now it's very common in Nautilus - any time I move a file that is represented by a thumbnail from one folder to another, Nautilus can't show the entire contents of the destination folder - sometimes Nautilus won't show anything, other times it s

Well, I don't have Karmic, so can't test it there. All I can tell you is that it is present in 9.04, has been since the days of 8.04, and has been noticeable since my first day of using a new installation of Ubuntu :) If it's fixed in 9.10, great. I can't test that until Karmic gets to at least a

Hi Sebastian, this is on 9.04 fully patched. I use external USB hard disks, the problem is very reproducible. If you don't have any luck seeing it, let me know and I'll give you exact steps (or, if there's an easy way of doing so, record a desktop video) for you. Cheers A. -Original Message---
