try re-installing nautilus:


sudo apt-get remove nautilus
sudo apt-get install nautilus

still get the same error :(

[gr4nf]

what happens when you simply open a folder form the desktop? does it not allow you to do so?

also, you could try the same reinstall process for your dvd burner too.

Hello, I am having exactly the same problem

turned out to be my fault. I uninstalled evolution.

Installing ubuntu-desktop package fixed the issue for me.

sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

(I only needed to do the install as i already uninstalled it)

also ran:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

hope this helps.

I too had this segmentation problem. Was not prepared to waste time hunting such a basic fault. So stopped using nautilus and used thunar instead. Install thunar via synaptic the sudo thunar.
