I got the same problem with with the Places Menu a fresh installation (from Vista to Ubuntu 8.10). It didn't appear directly.
After 1 or 2 weeks, just to give me the time to get a little familiar with Linux after years of Microsoft, I decided to download some more applications via the Synoptic Package Manager . Maybe I made an error by downloading a serie of equivalent applications just to find out which one suited me best. So I can't know wiche program triggered the bug; But from than on, the 3 first items of the Places Menu fired the gtkpod program. I tried to correct the error with the 'Open with' menu. In place I got the message "Could not open the location file:///home/... No application is registered as handling the file" In mimeapps.list if found the line ' inode/directory= ' Replacement by line 'inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;' corrected the error. My story should give the hint that the bug doens't come from Nautilus, but somewhere in the installing procedure of applications -- opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
