Plugging in USB device crashes Nautilus
Last modified: 2006-09-27 23:41:13 UTC
Distribution: Ubuntu 6.06 (dapper) Package: nautilus Severity: Normal Version: GNOME2.14.3 2.14.3 Gnome-Distributor: Ubuntu Synopsis: Plugging in USB device crashes Nautilus Bugzilla-Product: nautilus Bugzilla-Component: general Bugzilla-Version: 2.14.3 BugBuddy-GnomeVersion: 2.0 (2.14.1) Description: Description of the crash: On Ubuntu Dapper Drake that has been on for several weeks, plugging in a USB hard drive with 2 partitions crashes Nautilus Steps to reproduce the crash: 1. Plug in USB hard drive 2. crash 3. entire desktop paralyzed until Bug Buddy closed Expected Results: Partitions should mount correctly and quickly How often does this happen? Periodically, perhaps 60 or 70% of instances of being plugged in. Additional Information: This is a previously reported bug (e.g. 335114, 355875). However, as I've had Nautilus minimized, there's an interesting new wrinkle - Gnome habitually places the icons for the plugged in USB drive's partitions in exactly the same place on the desktop screen (in my case the two appear at the top, and 1/3 of the way from the bottom, respectively, of empty second 'column' from left of the screen, the first 'column' being filled with icons of internal hard drive partitions). If it places them in the normal place, Nautilus does NOT crash when USB plugged in. On occasions when Nautilus DOES crash, it has placed the icon(s) somewhere else (different places on different occasions).

(In reply to comment #0) > This is a previously reported bug (e.g. 335114, 355875). However, as Yup, according to the stacktrace, the very same issue. However, I'll add your aditional comments there. Thanks. Also, the maintainers need more information (better stacktrace) to fix the bug. Could you please answer the questions in the other report? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 335114 ***
