Thanks Jason. That was my problem too, prefered application for terminal was set to 'Custom', blank in command line and '-x' in options. Setting preferred terminal to gnome-terminal fixes the problem.
However I have no idea how this setting was set to this erroneous value. I also think nautilus should detect the problem and throw an error message and not hang... -- nautilus-open-terminal freezes nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137027 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
