ok, I found out something. Bug is in Hardy Heron with all updates.
How to reproduce: 1. open nautilus (just after the system started or after you haven't used it for some time, maybe half an hour) 2. type some letters Expected behaviour: The typed letters should show up at the bottom right of the nautilus window, and the first folder/file that starts with the typed letters should be highlighted. Actual behaviour: nothing happens I just found out that it works if you klick in the address bar and press enter. It also works then the following times you open nautilus. But if you don't use nautilus for some time, it stops working again. -- search-as-you-type doesn't always work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/249852 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
