I have not had this error occur for some weeks. I was using nautilus during my current session about half an hour ago. I have tried to start nautilus by: 1. Clicking "Show in folder" from Google Chromium browser; and 2. Clicking the "Files" icon in the Unity Launcher; and 3. Typing "nautilus" into a terminal. The best I get is the icon in the Launcher flashes as the application tries to start. 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu el_gallo_azul@W2600CR-850Pro:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS Release: 16.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center el_gallo_azul@W2600CR-850Pro:~$ apt-cache policy nautilus nautilus: Installed: 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu6 Candidate: 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu6 Version table: *** 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu6 500 500 http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu4 500 500 http://mirror.optus.net/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages 3) What you expected to happen Nautilus starts 4) What happened instead Nautilus doesn't start ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: nautilus 1:3.18.4.is.3.14.3-0ubuntu6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-83.106-generic 4.4.70 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-83-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.9 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Jul 23 09:03:00 2017 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-10-14 (1012 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to xenial on 2016-08-26 (330 days ago) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1705864/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
