Running nautilus from a terminal window I saw the following error
as nautilus crashed:
totem-video-thumbnailer couln't open file 'file:///home/amos/tmp/tali4.swf'
Reason: There is no plugin to handle this movie..
Xlib: unexpected async reply (sequence 0x7e6b)!
Moving this file away stopped the crashes - until I tried to browse
the directory I moved this file to.
I'll report this about the Nautilus package.
Thanks,

Hello,
I use Debian Sarge (testing) both at work and at home.
I use Gnome (debian package "gnome", version 64, gnome 2.8.3)
at work and it works beautifully.
At home, however, Nautilus keeps crashing.
I see at
http://mirror.hamakor.org.il/archives/linux-il/12-2004/13268.html
that Ely LEvy has already asked about a similar crash but without
any useful response. I also dug the debian archives (bugs, mailing
lists, forums, google) and apparently this bug is somehow ignored
even though a which looks similar is reported.
My question:
1. Is anyone aware of a solution to this particular crash?
2. Is anyone aware of a good place for Sarge-Gnome-Users
to hang about with questions about this?
I'd be tempted to upgrade to Ubuntu just to be able to enjoy
Gnome at last but from what I hear it's not a practical solution
(short of re-installation, which is pretty much out of the
question in my situation).
Thanks,
