I think I have found a replacement for Nautilus, it is called Nemo (!). >From its webpage (http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/?p=198): "Nemo is a complete fork of Nautilus 3.4 and its goal is to extend the Cinnamon user experience to desktop and file management."
It is included in Ubuntu's 13.10 default repositories. Install it with: sudo apt-get install nemo It looks a lot like Nautilus, but has the missing goodies: status bar, split screen and backspace key to go up (instead of Alt-up). It seems Nautilus developers are trying to make it simpler, but IMHO they are making it too simplistic. :-/ Nemo is already my default file browser. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159440 Title: Nautilus not showing status bar by default Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: In 13.04, Nautilus is not showing the status bar on the bottom when entering a folder with many items on it. It only shows the status bar when I select the items in it, but not by default when I go inside a folder. It should, like in the past, tell me how many items are shown (Folder and files) and how much free space is left. There is no option to activate this via gui either.
