I've had this problem for some time, too, on two 10.04 systems. Reinstalling gamin, installing python-gamin, killing nautilus all had no effect. However, someone mentioned Dropbox in a thread related to this problem, so I stopped Dropbox, and the autorefresh suddenly started working again. I restarted Dropbox, and the autorefresh continues to work (for now).
In my case, the autorefresh usually works after a reboot, but at some point in time it stops working until the next reboot. However, stopping Dropbox is the only way I've been able to recover autorefresh without a reboot. It would be interesting to see how many of the people who have experienced this problem also have Dropbox installed. -- Nautilus browser doesn't automatically refresh https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573160 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
