There's a bug for nautilus not providing feedback on Desktop: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121138 I suppose the scope of that could be extended to all new nautilus windows since there no longer is a throbber in nautilus at all. -- Kalle Vahlman, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Powered by http://movial.fi Interesting stuff at http://syslog.movial.fi _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list Usability@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
