[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1705864] Re: Nautilus no longer starts (again)
No, I haven't yet reinstalled the operating system. It's VERY tempting, due to the accumulation of bugs over time that happens on a computer, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to operate without my main computer for the 2 weeks that it takes to reinstall the operating system, applications, and configure everything again. Yes, the last time I had this issue was yesterday. I don't know of any way to make Nautilus start functioning again other than rebooting the computer. Note that this particular bug is not common. ie. It doesn't occur every day. It happens every couple of weeks on average. -- 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/1705864 Title: Nautilus no longer starts (again) Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have reported this bug several times (about 5 times) before.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1705864] Re: Nautilus no longer starts (again)
Yes, I always tried to add each instance of this `nautilus` bug to previous bug reports for the same bug. I wasn't always able to find them, though. You might well be right. It's more than a year since I last did a fresh installation of the OS, and in fact, it has received a version upgrade in that time, which in my experience, consistently breaks bits of the system. At least this time, the computer still booted OK after the upgrade, which is a first for me. Due to the current level of accumulated quirks and errors, I am now reaching the point where it is becoming so inconvenient to persist with my current installation that I'll do a fresh installation as soon as I get the opportunity for the week or so that's required to configure the fresh installation again. -- 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/1705864 Title: Nautilus no longer starts (again) Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have reported this bug several times (about 5 times) before.
