"What sort of device do you open? Is that a slow one?" It's a regular fat32 partition, and indeed if I follow the steps I did just now, and open an ext3 partition, nautilus doesn't crash. I tried all possible combinations for the device icons on my desktop, and it always crashes on the first fat32 partition I call. (at least following these steps; I'm pretty certain it has crashed before on just about every device, even a few times when I called my downloads folder from Firefox.)
I will attach the backtrace from gdb. ** Attachment added: "nautilus gdb backtrace" http://librarian.launchpad.net/4861935/Unsaved%20Document%201 -- nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window https://launchpad.net/bugs/47619 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
