Title:
  Nautilus suddenly loses connection to the files / appear as blank
  files

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I experience a minor bug with nautilus. Sometimes after long periods
  of using my computer (with nautilus open) and opening many files, when
  I try to open a file in nautilus the icon suddenly appears blank
  (which means that it turns into the new/blank file icon.) Name is
  still there though. Clicking another file makes that file's icon
  "blank" too and it seems as nautilus has "lost connection" to the
  files. In order to browse my harddrive I have to do a killall
  nautilus. After it restarts, it works nicely again.

  Any ideas on how to pinpoint this bug?

  I use Ubuntu 7.10, upgraded from 7.04. I have one ext3 partition along
  with several NTFS partitions. The bug might be related to the NTFS
  driver?
