This happens with every operation: copy, paste, delete in particular.

[Bug 538982] Re: delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash
It wouldn't be related to the fact that you can start typing a file name to search and it deliberately scrolls, would it? Maybe the delete key is getting mistaken for a search event. Try to delete when you're searching. Doesn't work, does it? And if I wait long enough before I do the last event it seems to also work fine. I can delete all those files if I wait long enough between each one (about 2 seconds?) -- delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538982 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Yes I confirm this bug too, and lastly with nautilus 2.30 in Lucid. Nautilus seems to miss 1 press delete key out of 2. The first one does not work but the second does work. Any fix ?

[Bug 538982] Re: delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash
I can confirm that Nautilus seem to me missing the delete key event sometimes. I have the same issue as OP. If instead of simply pressing the delete key you hold it down, the file will be deleted. Holding the key down caused multiple delete key events. This is why my theory is that Nautilus is somehow missing the first delete key event. This used to work perfectly fine in Karmic and every other Ubuntu Linux distro I've ever used. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538982 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 538982] Re: delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash
Hi there. Sorry I didn't put those in the first time around... I have been playing around with this a bit more to try to come up with a 100% way of doing this. I've discovered the following generally exhibits the behaviour I'm talking about. Please note: I have mouse focus turned on. 1. Create a bunch of files and folders. Here is a quick one-liner bash script to do this easily: seq 1 5 | while read seqnce; do touch file$seqnce; mkdir folder$seqnce; done 2. Select the last file in the display (file5 if using the script I pasted above) 3. Delete this file using the delete key. Usually it will delete, sometimes it won't 4. Hit the down arrow on the keyboard to select the last file in the list again (this only works 100% when using the down arrow... sometimes it works when using the right arrow as well) 5. Attempt to delete the selected file ONCE. On my setup, the file is not deleted almost every time (almost... as in 4 / 5 times). Hitting delete a second time will remove the file. I have been experiencing this with mouse selection as well under various circumstances, but can't find a reliable way to reproduce it. ** Description changed: Binary package hint: nautilus The delete key does not appear to function in nautilus.

[Bug 538982] Re: delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash
Oh... definitely not normal I agree. This exhibits the symptoms I was reporting... and at the moment I am unable to find a good reproducible way using mouse selection. It seems to happen occasionally too that ctrl+c ctrl+v don't either. Either way, if you follow those steps and get the same behaviour, then it is a bug though how high a priority considering the obtuse repeatability is obviously open for debate :) I'll keep an eye out for reproduction with the mouse, but it is currently very unreliable. It happens several times an evening, but I can't predict when or how just yet :( -- delete key doesn't do delete files or move to trash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538982 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
