Bug#505102: nautilus: Nautilus locks up entire gnome desktop

[Ivan Marin]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.20.0-7
Severity: minor

Some unknown procedure after opening a nautilus window locks up the
gnome desktop. Keyboard shortcuts and the gnome-panel
still works, but only the wallpaper is shown on the desktop (no icons
or files), and no other nautilus can be opened, even
from terminal. The session can only be closed with Crtl+Alt+Bksp, and
even after that some processes owned by the user still hangs on:
gnome-vfs,
nautilus, bonobo-activation-server and gconfd-2. This processes have
to be killed with kill -9.  I'm submitting the bug against nautilus,
but if I'm mistaken, I will submit to other package (maybe
gnome-desktop?).

Thanks
