Yes, I can confirm this bug happens to my wife and I also.  Using 2
different computers running Gutsy and only sharing a router for internet
access (we are sharing nothing else).

We are working with various folders on the desktop rearranging large
amounts of files, specifically .mpg files between folders (yes we both
have large music collections that need to be organized).  None of these
folders have more then a normal CDs worth of music in them, they are not
littered with hundreds of files, although the ~/home/username/Music/
will have thousands with all the CD titles stored there.

Randomly we are both getting a nautilus hiccup.  Any folders currently
open on the desktop become unresponsive.  When clicking on a file in one
of these folders the music note icon turns to a document style icon and
will not open.  Trying to open a new folder results in a dialog pop up
stating:

The folder contents could not be displayed.
Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "folder name".

We have both turned off the option to sample music files in Nautilus and
have since rebooted since changing this option.  This unfortunately does
not fix the problem either.  The only way short of a hard boot or soft
reset of gnome desktop, is to kill the nautilus process and let it
automatically restart.

Hope this explanation helps.

Tom
