Public bug reported: After a recent update, nautilus randomly refuses to start. Clicking on the 'home' button in the unity bar results in blinking for a while, then nothing. Trying to launch from a terminal does not give any information (it just hangs).
By the way, I noticed that when this happens I am unable to close my session to avoid a complete reboot. (which is the only way I can get around this bug for the moment) It may happen that after a while (2/3 min) the issue resolves itslef. Ubuntu: 14.04.1 LTS nautilus: 1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.4 I understand these are very few information, so please someone let me know how to collect more info when this happens. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Package changed: gedit (Ubuntu) => nautilus (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1412631 Title: Nautilus fails to start Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After a recent update, nautilus randomly refuses to start.
