Hello,

I could use some ideas, as Nautilus Find doesn't currently work properly on my Ubuntu Gnome system (13.04, fully updated), and I'm not able to fix it. The problem is, Nautilus Find is only able to find files when I search from the default folders.

Search works from following folders and all their subfolders (Home is an exception):
- Desktop
- Documents
- Downloads
- Music
- Videos
- Home (search works only one level down from Home)

Search doesn't work from the root directory and external devices. Most of my files are placed in Home, so currently I'm not able to search much.

I recently updated Nautilus**with SolusOS Nautilus 3.4 **patch, but I'm not sure, if the problem coincided with the update. This also isn't the first time I have this problem, and previously I have always used vanilla Nautilus, so I'm inclined to think that the patch isn't the problem. Previously I didn't test the problem thoroughly, so I don't know, if the symptoms were exactly the same.

I tried different settings in System tools/Search, but it didn't make any difference. I specified an exact path to a folder there, but it didn't make the search work.

Information about SolusOS Nautilus patch:

Thanks,
