Public bug reported: Upgrading from 11.04 to 12.04 I had found that the spacebar had stopped functioning to open a file in nautilus. At first, I had thought this a bug, as other things had not been working properly either. I then ran across this bug report that (quite coincidently) "fixed" the "bug" that the spacebar opens files. https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/431073
It was not a bug, but it was a feature that I myself and other people (see http://askubuntu.com/questions/100557/spacebar-not-launching- application-open-file) have used quite frequently. It would be great to have this fixed (with an option to disable the feature in the nautilus preferences) ** Affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: nautilus Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Upgrading from 11.04 to 12.04 I had found that the spacebar had stopped functioning to open a file in nautilus.
