OK enough complaining on my behalf Instead some information that may help; nemo-bugs
1 sidebar (consistent) bug sidebar is set to be shown sidebar is set to show places all drop-down menus are set to show all none are set to be collapsed * on a new computer start-up; when first opening nemo * under "Devices" it only showed half of my partitions all of /dev/sda some of /dev/sdb none of /dev/sdc showed no scrollbar * I have 16 partitions to show and usually they can be seen by scrolling down * temporary measure: collapse the "My Computer" menu and it shows all devices then it is fine to re-open the "My Computer" menu 2 gksudo nemo getting tired after handling a few files copying, renaming, permission changes it would refuse to reopen (time-out) * temporary measure: use gksudo nautilus but try to work efficiently with above - naa 3 renaming bug progressively showing itself more frequently when renaming words would highlight but mouse cursor would either not move or disappear newly typed characters would not show while typing but would show when finalising at it's worst renaming was either impossible or it deleted the file !! now that is serious * temporary measure: override nemo with the hammer of Thor nemo was only used for desktop handling Browser related history started with xubuntu and thunar made one bookmark (/var/cache/apt/archives) in thunar which ended up under "My Computer" in nemo (not a standard place for bookmarks) xubuntu only being my starting OS I proceeded to: * install gnome-session-flashback While still using nautilus made a bookmark (usr/share/icons) which ended up under "Bookmarks" in nemo, but the ONLY one showing there? nautilus is a dependency of gnome-session-flashback; it is not removable! not happy with the shortcomings of nautilus decided to: * change over to nemo made it the default file and desktop handler (component viewer) but problems made me: * downgraded to 1.8.4 the present trusty version no image manipulating tools work there not happy with that fact, so: * mid-graded to mint Rebecca 2.4 because of cinnamon dependencies it broke compiz and not wanting to give up compiz: * upgraded back to 2.6 * used thunar for a few hours as the main browser but lack of a lot of options we appreciate in nemo and after below mentioned changes: * gave nemo another chance Possible Solutions 1 side bar bug disappeared after: removing the shortcuts that were made in other browsers from then on under "Bookmarks" it showed all the usual suspects: Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos and Downloads 2 with the fatigue bug I can't tell yet; not enough work done as a super user 3 renaming bug seems to have gone now too after reading the mention of ibus and thinking of the interaction of the keyboard with the themes and not wanting to loose my keyboard options by un-installing ibus I installed: ibus-gtk, ibus-gtk3, ibus-qt4 also used another keyboard with USB instead of PS-4 the sidebar bug looks like an interaction of various browsers creating havoc with the operation of nemo the renaming bug could have to do with the keyboard time will tell -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1270373 Title: Nemo allows only one file rename (in list view) per login session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1270373/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
