** Description changed: Binary package hint: nautilus Follow the steps to reproduce (everytime) in Feisty Fawn 7.04: Pre-requisites: Make sure you have the Nautilus Open Terminal package installed. sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal Then: - 1. Open Control Centre -> Preferred Applications + 1. Open System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications 2. Click on the System tab and select Custom from the Terminal Emulator choices. 3. Delete the contents of the Command and Execute flag fields (so both fields are empty) and click on Close to save. 4. Open System Monitor and go to the processes view and order the view by % CPU (descending) 5. Right-click anywhere on the Desktop to display the Nautilus context menu and select Open Terminal. After a very short period, Nautilus will start to load the CPU and will eventually hit 100% utilization. Nautilus freezes and no terminal window is displayed. Using killall nautilus is the only way to recover from this scenario.
