Since the past few days, Nautilus has started crashing whenever I access one of the Documents, video, pictures, download folder. It does not happen when I access the home folder and other mounted drives.

The interesting thing is I do not get any error messages, Nautilus simply closes when trying to access these folders.

Can you please tell what might be the problem and how to rectify ?

I have recently installed Gnome-documents and Sushi, and am on Gnome 3.2 with Oneric 11.10.

Thanks and Regards

Removing nautilus-open-terminal fixed it for me. None of the Ubuntu One client stuff above helped for me, but removing nautilus-open-terminal definitely did. Nautilus now opens, and it seems to open slightly quicker.

With nautilus-open-terminal installed, if I launched nautilus from terminal, I would get a number of segmentation faults, and nautilus would either not open, or it would open then close after browsing a few folders.

After reading a comment in that forum BruceBerry mentioned above, about removing nautilus-open-terminal, the terminal now can just open nautilus with absolutely no error messages and I have Ubuntu One file syncing just fine.

  • This. Trying to delete .nautilus didn't help me at all, since there was no such file in my home directory to begin with. Removing nautilus-open-terminal did the trick. – nem75 Oct 10 '11 at 09:55

what i did was;

sudo apt-get purge nautilus-open-terminal

and now everything is just fine! I love the new distro!

Try to remove nautilus config files:

rm -rf ~/.nautilus

If its not working open nautilus on console, re-do it and copy the log for me pls.
