Bug#648615: Latest update of nautilus in unstable has removed everything from desktop
Thank you Michael, When I try to bring in gnome-tweak-tool with apt-get, it brings in a lot of gnome 3 packages as well, like gnome-shell (even though I've pinned gnome to 2.30). My sources.list points to wheezy but I tried adding in some snapshot.debian terms for August 2011, to no avail. I would think this configuration item would exist in a text file under /etc. Is there a way to access it directly, without gnome-tweak-tool? Changing to gnome 3 is a big decision and I wouldn't want to do that just in order to solve this issue. thanks, --jack --- On Mon, 11/28/11, Michael Biebl bi...@debian.org wrote: From: Michael Biebl bi...@debian.org Subject: Re: Bug#648615: Latest update of nautilus in unstable has removed everything from desktop To: JS jsh...@yahoo.com, 648...@bugs.debian.org Date: Monday, November 28, 2011, 6:11 PM On 28.11.2011 23:49, JS wrote: Thank you Josselin, Can you point me to somewhere that explains how/whether I can restore the earlier behavior in this version of nautilus?

Bug#648615: Latest update of nautilus in unstable has removed everything from desktop
I'm running Wheezy and just upgraded from nautilus 2.30.1-3 to nautilus 3.0.2-4. After this upgrade I saw that: 1. items in ~/Desktop no longer appear as icons on my root window 2. the nautilus Scripts menu, including the items in: ~/.gconf2/nautilus-scripts no longer appears with a right click on the root window of my gnome 2.30+11 desktop, although it does appear in nautilus windows. 3. mounting removable media no longer displays a desktop icon from which one can launch a nautilus window to browse the contents although the file system is properly mounted (via udev). Although this data and info is still available, it is not gotten as conveniently as before, particularly #2. Are these changes in nautilus 3.0 or was some default configuration removed that allowed them to work as in 2.30? thanks, --jack -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

If my data is not where I put it, and I am unable to find it in order to complete tasks, then it is GONE. And since I am unable to find the personal data that you so blithely assume the upgrade did not wipe out, stop abusing my intelligence.
