I have experienced a similar problem with the latest release. This problem occured within a day of performing a clean install of Ubuntu 10.10.
1) Ubuntu Release 10.10 2) Nautilus version: 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1.1 3) What expected to happen: I was just moving a few folders around. I expected this to proceed as usual. There were a few things going on simultaneously. Nautilus had three tabs open. Gedit was open in my second workspace area. I was doing some file copying In my fourth workspace: 20Gb of files were being copied from an external HD using NTFS, over USB to my local ext4 HD. The process was occasionally being interrupted with filenames that were too long. 4) Nautilus in the first workspace froze. A folder was selected in its frozen state. I cannot deselect the folder nor select another folder. Neither can I select another tab or the Nautilus menu or toolbars. Please note, however, that Nautilus did not report an Error. It just froze. Please note also that my 20Gb copy in Workspace 4 was not interrupted. It carried on just fine. Should I report this as a separate bug? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428564 Title: nautilus crashed while copying a set of large files -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
