When you start nautilus by clicking on the gnome-shell-icon the mouse cursor will keep spinning for at least half a minute. (sometimes there also is a spinning wheel on the top panel. This happens only when you have nautilus handle the desktop. I have found out when the bug occurs and when it does not: Bug occurs when: clicking the icon on the gnome-shell-panel clicking on the icon of the gnome-extension (Frippery Panel Favorites) clicking on the link to a subfolder of the homedirectory using the gnome-shell extension All-in-one-Places clicking on the notivication which appears when inserting a harddrive of some kind Bug does not occur when: clicking on the link to the homedirectory using the gnome-shell extension All-in-one-Places clicking on a direct desktop icon to the home folder or any other folder starting nautilus via terminal I also tested this using the ubuntu server version (12.04) and installing the hgnome shell manually without any unity files This bug does not occur on Fedora or any other distribution using gnome-shell, therefore I assume it must have something to do with Ubuntu and Nautilus.
