Title:
  Nautilus randomly becomes (nearly) unresponsive

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I am on Ubuntu 11.4 (2.6.38-11-generic-pae #47-Ubuntu SMP), and every couple of days nautilus becomes nearly unresponsive. Today it happened when I right-clicked the file tree, intending to open a directory in a new tab (but the context menu never so much as opened). Here are some details:
  (0) apt-cache says nautilus is 1:2.32.2.1-0ubuntu13 0.
  (1) The CPU consumption of nautilus is very moderate.
  (2) Nautilus does not react to the mouse, with the exceptions given below, nor to the keyboard.
  (3) The window manager buttons for "minimize" and "maximize" still work, and nautilus redraws perfectly, consuming a bit of CPU time.
  (4) The window manager "close" button reacts optically but does not close the window.
  (5) Using the mouse I can still scroll in both parts of the window (file tree and directory listing).
  (6) When the focus is given to /removed from nautilus the colour of the selected file changes normally. (It is not possible to change the selection, however.)

  So far the only way to continue I have found is to kill nautilus and
  restart it.
