This seems to be the same problem as in: 185483 I saw a similar scenario just now: I attempted to display the Properties dialog for a file on the desktop (to check how big it was).
No Properties window appeared, but after some time I discovered that a) no icons or files were displayed on the desktop (i.e., the desktop was not displaying correctly) and b), nautilus was using 90% of the CPU so the computer was practically blocked. Alas, I don't know how to reproduce this. -- nautilus eat memory, locks desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187547 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
