I was able to reproduce the bug again, this time with 4 blank text files. As soon as I click rename button, nautilus freezes and stops responding but other applications continue to work. After a minute or so, other applications too freeze including the clock. Mouse pointer moves but not smoothly. Mouse clicks don't work, system fans are in full speed and HDD activity LED is on.
The only way to get system work again was hard reboot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1928867 Title: System freeze on bulk rename To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1928867/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
