I'm also seeing this. I seem to be able to reproduce it. Turn on the external USB drive. Open it in Nautilus to ensure it's mounted. Drop into the command (guake rocks!) and browse into a folder on the drive. Go to the desktop, select the drive and choice "Safely remove drive". BANG, the desktop icons are gone and the desktop is dead.
Unmounting or "Safely remove" in Nautilus file manager window when the drive is in use on the command line will crash Nautilus. Both of these issues will happen again and again until the command line in question is directed out of a folder on the drive, or of course the command line is closed down. It looks like a drive busy issue. Nautilus doesn't seem to cope if the drive is in use by something other than itself. -- safely remove drive causes segfault in libgobject and libXtst https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
