I went through Nautilus preferences a half dozen times. I played with every setting I could find but no joy. The only reference to the sidebar in the Preferences window is a checkbox under Tree View Defaults at the bottom of the Views tab. Checking and unchecking it made no difference. The only setting change I could find that made the sidebar appear again was in the gconf editor. I think you need to read what it says there as the setting change I made is explained as making Nautilus 2.6 behave like previous versions of Nautilus. As Nautilus 2.6 didn't behave for me the same way the previous version did then I believe I made the correct setting change. If there is a setting in Nautilus preferences that is clearly marked as changing whether or not the sidebar appears then you need to point it out to me. I don't believe any such option exists in Preferences and I've just gone through it another couple of times. > > > email message attachment > > -------- Forwarded Message -------- > > From: Gary Koskenmaki <[email protected]> > > To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[email protected]> > > Subject: nautilus: Sidebar has disappeared. > > Date: Thu, 28 May 2009 12:59:50 -0700 > > > > Package: nautilus > > Version: 2.26.2-3 > > Severity: normal > > > > The sidebar in Nautilus no long appears.
