w00t! Let the breakage begin!

So, Nautilus 3.7.1, it is...

That'll be the day !

Bwahahaha! Yeah, I know...

Personally, I prefer to use PCManFM which, BTW, is still working just fine.

Anyway, Nautilus 3.4.2 is terminally broken, AFAIK.

If you want it it's in the staging ppa (needs glib/gtk from the testing ppa.
If you going the GS route in Ubuntu then the 3 ppa's will be your only 'easy' path
Atm no sense using 3.7+ gtk in a unity session, already breaks elements of light-themes
(the latest glib breaks some unity indicators but that will be addressed I believe

Same here . Nautilus has become some sort of carbon copy ghost of itself. Oddly enough I can have them both running together.

Yep, you can run Nautilus & PCManFM side-by-side, both at the same time -- one with user privileges, the other in root auth -- and any other combination you can imagine. They are very happy to coexist on the same desktop.

The funny thing is, when Nautilus 3.4.2 was working, I often forgot which FM I was running. They both worked equally well. LoL!

I used Nautilus 3.7.1 for a few hours, last night. It worked okay, but you definitely have to go about things a different way -- using cut n' paste, instead of 'move" (which is a PITA now). If 'they' would add "move to the other tab" instead of opening another instance of the browser, it would help, but I'm not holding my breath.

I'm going to sorely miss the split pane mode, especially when I do file transfers between my local machine in Arizona, and remote server in Georgia.

Without the split pane(s), I really have no use for Nautilus, but I'll let it languish in the background, like a "ghost" walking the hallways of my PC.

Well lucky me, I'm not using Unity
and thanks for the info, Rico Tzschichholz is doing great, I hope it will land in the Gnome3 ppa or better yet in main (maybe I'm a bit too optimistic ? )
