    Problem with nautilus

    Sometimes I enter nautilus and I don't see video files displayed. The mouse is showing that somethings boots with the circle pointer, but video files just don't appear. When I restart nautilus by ending the process in System Monitor, everything works fine. The problem appears randomly, at least once a day. The new things I did at the last time was installing 9.10 and cairo-dock, maybe the problem is because of them...

    Any ideas about how to fix it?

    That circle pointer means it's loading. When you kill Nautilus, it basically tries reloading the folder, which works. Next time, you don't have to kill Nautilus. All you have to do is go up one folder and click on the folder you were opening again. That should work!

    Do you really think I didn't try it? =)
    It just doesn't show the video files in no way until I do hard restart.

    Is this just video files? Does this happen only with a certain folder?

    Yes, just video files (avi, mkv). /home/[username]/Downloads/Movies

    Have you tried copying the videos in ~/Downloads/Movies to a different location (like ~/Videos)? Try that and see if the same thing happens.
