Your kill, restart nautilus window probably better then my work around. I just shut every thing and restart. I only encounter this issue about once a month now, was more common, I suppose I changed my usage. Oh I know, when I had this issue a lot I was listening to books while recovering from an operation. I was on the computer with the MP3 player probably five times normal. Good catch on the USB plug in. Maybe somebody will find it.
Karl Johnson -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/934288 Title: Nautilus Does not Display Menus Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Nautilus (file manager) working fine, then not. What happens is the menus stop displaying. You select a menu item expecting a list of actions and you get about four pixel wide little bump where the list normally displays. I suspect it is there but being displayed under the menu bar where it is not visible on the display.
