Description lafleurcp 2003-05-04 20:40:27 UTC 
Package: nautilus
Severity: normal
Version: 2.0.6
Synopsis: File browser crashes when entering/leaving an updating filder
Bugzilla-Product: nautilus
Bugzilla-Component: general
BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.0.3)

Description:
Description of Problem:
A large number of files are being copied from CD. Each file is a few meg
in size. As the files are being copied, nautilus will intermitently
crash when entering the destination folder for the copy, or when leaving
the folder (via the Back button)

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open a terminal
2. cp the contents of a CD to some destination directory
3. Open a file viewer
4. Navigate to the destination directory
5. Leave directory
6. Re-enter directory
7. Repeat steps 5 & 6 as necessary

Actual Results:
Nautilus crashes with a segmentation fault and restarts. It
automatically opens a file browsing window for, I assume, the window
pointed at the destination directory when it restarts. It restarts by
pointing to the user's home directory however. The window opened for the
contents of the CD via automount is not re-opened.

Expected Results:
Well, not crashing for starters... :)

How often does this happen?
It does not occur each time I attempt to navigate into or out of the
folder as the instructions suggest. So, I would classify it as sporadic
at best. However, it has happened twice in the span of approximately 30
minutes to an hour. I'm in the process of copying over quite a number of
CDs.

Additional Information:
Running on essentially a stock version of Red Hat 8.1. No updates (to my
knowledge) have been applied to Nautilus since installation. The
transfer is going from a SCSI CD drive to an "extra storage" IDE disk.
In other words, the destination drive does not contain system data that
Gnome/Nautilus might be competing for access to.

This was commonly reported with 2.0.6 but seems to be fixed in the 2.2
series.
