doing rm -rf .gconf/apps/nautilus removes this problem for me, but when I go into the nautilus preferences and change the default icon size from 100% to 150%, the problem comes back (nautilus insatiably chews up CPU and memory). If I try switching the default icon size back, nautilus remains in the bad state. Attaching strace to nautilus shows that it's spinning with poll on an EAGAIN (as shown in the original report). After logging out and logging back in with default icon size set to 100%, everything is OK again.
I'm seeing this on PPC-based mac hardware. -- Nautilus not showing the desktop icons & wallpaper on login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218070 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
