[Bug 47619] Re: nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window
OK, so this bug happened again on my system a few days ago, with the old nautilus packages (from the regular 'dapper' repo), so the new bug is perhaps not related to this, or at least it can happen without the patch from this bug report applied to nautilus. Also, at first this bug would surface after just a few hours of usage; then it was intermitent, while right now it's been a long time since the last time I had it. I have already installed again the packages referenced here in this bug report, and so far (a few days) with no issues. -- nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window https://launchpad.net/bugs/47619 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 47619] Re: nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window
I'm still experiencing the new bug that was possibly exposed by the patch for the one on this page. I though it had somehow gone away, but it started happening again. I suggest holding back this patch until the other bug is sorted out. Somehow I prefer a few nautilus crashes to a messed up hal plus forced reboot, so I have already reverted my system to the previous nautilus packages. I'll wait until someone takes a look at the other bug to install the packages with the patch in question again, and help out figuring out debugging it. -- nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window https://launchpad.net/bugs/47619 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Ok, I installed the patched debs, and I no longer get the crash(!) with the procedure I had. I also left various nautilus windows open overnight and been fooling around for a few minutes, browising folders, opening a few new nautilus windows, and all is running OK :-) As an added bonus, this patch seems to have fixed the issue I mentioned to you before, where nautilus would, over time, get increasingly slow browsing between folders, until finally it would crash.

What sort of device do you open? Is that a slow one? It's a regular fat32 partition, and indeed if I follow the steps I did just now, and open an ext3 partition, nautilus doesn't crash. I tried all possible combinations for the device icons on my desktop, and it always crashes on the first fat32 partition I call. (at least following these steps; I'm pretty certain it has crashed before on just about every device, even a few times when I called my downloads folder from Firefox.)

[Bug 47619] Re: nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window
Still getting some crashes like described in this report. what I do to get around this is I keep a nautilus window open in the computer:/// location, and from there I open the mount I need in a new window. I either do this, or I would be getting a handful of nautilus crashes daily. For a while nautilus would crash when browsing between folder, but now it's back to 'only' crashing when opening a new window. Since this 2nd bug, nautilus now gets increasingly sluggish with usage, and eventually it would crash, a memory leak maybe? I have a bunch backtraces from this second bug, should it be helpful. About debugging this problem, I would like to help out doing whatever needs to be done, bear in mind, though, I'm not a developer by any definition (and specially not with C! bleehh! ;P) Ah, and just thought I should mention my hardware config: AMD Sempron64 2600+ 1GB RAM DDR400 ATI Radeon 9600PRO 256MB SBLive! with MIDI bay (currently not installed) disks: 1x250GB ATA disk 1x120GB ATA disk 1x250GB SATA disk 8MB cache -- nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window https://launchpad.net/bugs/47619 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Seems this bug still crops up on my system after a fresh install of the final Dapper release, happened when calling my home folder from the 'places' menu. I really don't know, if other people aren't getting this bug too, maybe it's something with my hardware configuration or something I configured or installed, though I haven't done much yet besides change the theme, add a couple of app launchers to the panel, change the X configuration and little more. I have installed all the debug symbols I installed in Dapper Beta, and will post the traceback here should nautilus crash again. I will include now the list of packages I installed so far before this bug happened again , just in case... ps. This time even gedit crashed(!) when I was creating the file with the installed packages list from Synaptic.

[Bug 47619] Re: nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window
There really is no sure way to trigger this bug; clicking on a partition on the desktop might work now, but in five minutes it might trigger a crash. Admittedly what seems to trigger it most often is calling a partition directly from the 'removable media' menu under 'Places' , though it's certainly not exclusive to this procedure; I've had nautilus crash when calling the downloads folder from the Firefox download manager. I have uploaded a screenshot of the nautilus window that appears after I simply click on the 'Home Folder' option under the 'Places' menu: http://img303.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nautilus24no.png I think I've tried the spatial mode before but I'm not sure if I was using the Konqueror file manager since I can't figure out now how to activate it in Nautilus. And as you can see, there are a bunch of duplicate buttons for opening the current folder on a terminal (from the nautilus-open-terminal package) that don't happen to work most times (they open a terminal on my home folder). They started appearing like this only after the last few times I updated this box about a week ago. Before there was there an option for opening the current folder with Konqueror. After purging and reinstalling the nautilus-open-terminal package, the duplicate buttons remain, but at least sellecting the option from the right click menu now works again. I've had other issues towards the end of the beta fase that other people were describing on the official ubuntu irc support channel, such as having my username removed from the sudoers (admin) group, and X getting it's configuration messed up. I guess using a development beta always involves these kind of issues, that's why it's called a development release, no matter how careful the developers are, there are always incompatabilities or specific cases which cannot be predicted, and which should be reported by the users. I think I will really prefer to reinstall eventually in a few days when the final version comes out. -- nautilus sometimes crashes when opening new window https://launchpad.net/bugs/47619 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
