The problem is fully reproducible. I can reproduce the bug like this: 1) Open a Nautilus window to view contents of an SD card (plugged into a USB 2.0 reader). 2) Open another window to view destination folder on the server. 3) Start to copy (drag'n'drop) photos from the SD card to the server as a one big chunk so that the whole process will take several minutes to complete. 4) Try to view a photo from the SD card while the copy is still in progress. What should happen: - The photo should open in the default image viewer. What happens instead: - Nothing happens. All Nautilus windows turn into grey and they don't respond anymore. The progress indicator on the Launcher gets stuck. - Nautilus cannot be opened again. The computer has to be rebooted in order to use Nautilus again.
