> Does it happen with a new created user? It could be a broken nautilus configuration.
Thanks for the suggestion. I did some tests with a new user and figured out what happened: Nautilus works fine for new user, so I started copying some config files over from my account and found the culprit. ~/,config/user-dirs.dirs had this in it: XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/" Changing that to "$HOME/Desktop/" made everything work fine... I can honestly say that I haven't edited this file though. maybe some xdg-user-dirs-* script did this automatically at some point (there are no man pages for any of those scripts so I can't tell what they're for)? So, My system is now fine. Thanks for the help. Feel free to close this if you think it's not really a bug (I'm sure this is somehow related to me copying my home dir over). -- files from ~ shown on desktop (desktop_is_home_dir == false) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154037 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
