Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since
this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work,
I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here.
Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!
Please do not open another upstream report about this bug. That will
only create a duplicate report. On the other hand, please do add your
comments to the upstream report you listed above. Bug #163587 happens
when two thunar windows are opened, instead of one.
I have linked the upstream report to this bug report so that we will
have the updates to it available. It is still an open report.

** Description changed:
Binary package hint: thunar
Hello to the Thunar dev team!
I've been using Xubuntu, formerly 32-Bit 7.04 and 7.10, along with
Thunar for well a year by now - currently it's 8.04 X64 - and have had
good results with this distribution so far. But the grieveous bug of
regular Thunar freezes has occured from the day I started to use Xubuntu
- on a completely different hardware. About a year ago, I've already
posted a bugreport about this problem and saw bugreports similar to
mine.
It's only by today, that I've learned how to reproduce this:
- [b]http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2502[/b]
+ http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2502
The following link is most likely the same category:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots/+bug/122146
Maybe also relevant:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/163587
The descriptions match exactly, my Thunar freezes (only with active tree
view) as soon as I've pressed CTRL-H two times. Every time. It was long
unclear, how it would even, but crashes have been occuring on a regular
basis, sometimes up to over 15 times a day.
I don't know what's the cause of this, a buggy XFCE desktop or bugs in
Thunar, but it's seriously interfering all day work.
As the mentioned bugreports (and my personal experience) suggest, this has
been an issue since 2006.
For efficient work, a tree view is vital, but it's too unstable to use this
mode.
So please, someone of you dev's gotta contact the XFCE dev team and get this
nasty thing finally sorted.
I'm also gonna send a bugreport at XFCE's, to also draw their attention to
the problem.
Thank you!
