[Bug 305546] Re: Nautilus crashing/freezing when opening folder with svg file

 

I'm on Karmic because my hardware isn't supported by higher versions -
ATi 4250 which kills booting on later versions. .svg preview kills
nautilus and it really needs fixing. Non-techs here can't understand why
their desktop background suddenly disappears! I have set my Nautilus
preview option to not display files > 500k in preview because it seems
to be the bigger Inkscape files that cause problems. Its a work around
but not a satisfactory fix. I'd fix it myself if I knew how! Disable
preview for .svg should not be that hard and it is better to display a
generic icon for one filetype than crash the whole system. Another
workaround if you can use samba is to put the files on a smb share
because then icons are not displayed.
