includes a major
upgrade to Nautilus and they have removed lots of useful
stuff (not
the Ubuntu developers, the Nautilus developers) so it may
no longer be
there or may have moved. Have a look.
Not intending to troll, but Linux Mint's Nemo file manager is
like a breath
of old, familiar air. These devs are busy restoring
functionality from
Gnome 2's nautilus. I've used it for 2 months now and do not
miss Nautilus
at all.
It should be easy to install in stock Ubuntu if you prefer Unity.

You know, I spend so much time telling the world how great Ubuntu
is. It would probably do me the world of good to look at some of
the alternatives every once in a while! Trouble is I don't have a
spare machine to try them on right now.
That's where VirtualBox comes in handy (yes, KVM is open source and
the supported virtualisation solution but it doesn't work that well
with desktops in my experience).

Please see my posts on 'Ubuntu is unusably slow'. My poor pathetic
laptop can't even handle playing music while I read the OMGUbuntu website!!!
