Oh dear, I'm sorry, but it does NOT seem to be dependent on the filesystem... I now also created an EXT4 partition on the flash drive and on both Oneiric systems the issue occurs. The only time when the progress bar seems to work, is when I copy files from the root partition to the root partition (confirmed on both systems).
** Description changed: I just copied a couple of GiB around and noticed that the progress bar on the Nautilus launcher item wasn't working. It looks like the progress bar gets painted in the other direction, but that's just a guess (see screenshot). - This happens when copying more than one file from a NTFS or FAT32 - source, e.g. NTFS -> EXT4 or FAT32 -> NTFS. It does not happen with an - EXT4 source and it doesn't happen if it's only one file. + The progress bar seems to work fine when staying on the root partition. TEST CASE: - 1. Open Nautilus and copy more than one large files from an NTFS partition to another location so the progress bar pops up. + 1. Open Nautilus and copy more than one large file from one partition to another so the launcher item progress bar pops up. RESULT: The progress bar doesn't follow the progress shown in Nautilus' file operation dialog.
