Title:
  Nautilus crashes ruining Unity desktop

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  distro: Ubuntu 11.10 beta amd64 20111005
  pkg: nautilus 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu5, 

  1. Nautilus crashes when browsing "/" (aka file system root).
  Open Nautilus from unity launcher, click on "File System" on left panel to browse the root.
  Click on any root directory, and nautilus crashes.

  2. Nautilus crashes when view hidden files is enabled.
  Open Nautilus from unity launcher, enable view hidden files, and click on any folder to view it, and nautilus crashes.

  3. Nautilus crashes when another tab is opened.
  Open Nautilus from unity launcher, middle click any folder on the left panel. Click on the newly open tab to browse it and nautilus crashes.

  4. Open terminal from unity launch, and run nautilus from that
  terminal. Running nautilus from terminal is more resistant to
  crashing. I will be able to view root folders but still crashes when
  view hidden files is enabled.

  After nautilus crashes:
  All the icons on the desktop disappears. Clicking on nautilus launcher from unity bar does not launch nautilus at all. I will need to start a terminal and run nautilus from there. When nautilus is run this way, the icons on the desktop reappears until nautilus crashes again.

  Compiz customizations:
  Have used ccsm to modify unity bar launch icon size to 32, made unity bar to autohide. Installed "open in terminal".
