Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
Occasionally Nautilus will freeze when it tries to generate thumbnails
for open office documents, spreadsheets, or presentations. I'm using a
current version of Hardy. The steps that I use to reproduce the bug on
my machine are:
1. Open Firefox and Rhythmbox. I'm not sure why but the thumbnails get
generated just fine otherwise.
2. Create a new open office document. Put some text in it (so a thumbnail is
generated) and save to a folder.
3. Open offending folder.
On my machine the cpu goes to 100 and Naultilus freezes. If I force
quit, Nautilus restarts in the same directory and freezes again and the
only way out is to remove the file via shell.
I will be happy to post more information as needed. For instance, I
imagine there is a debug/crash output for Nautilus somewhere but I don't
know how to access it.
