Nautilus will not search for files

[ventrical]

For a unity session you could install
sudo apt-get install gnome-search-tool

While awaiting some resolution

It will not work for the file/s I mentioned;

mir-doc: /share/doc/mir-doc/html/dummy__input__manager_8cpp.html

no matter how I truncate it.

It will only work if I use a wildcard * and .html.

Looks like something I am doing wrong here.

Must of missed that, no matter

It's possible that -
you should do a restart & or the search tool doesn't like searching the "File system"

So help it out & narrow down a bit, noting that the further away the longer it will take, a far point of /usr should work, /usr/share a bit quicker, ect.
see screen 1
screen 2 example of nautilus (really fixed), searching from /

.... one of those days .. I had been using only a single '_' for android__buffer which is actually 2 "__" underscores during my search...

these days happen ... yes they do

Very odd.

It will search for wav files but not txt , png or jpg nor ogg. It will find folders however.

Dash search works fine.

[P-I H]

In my installation Nautilus will find files and folders that are shown in the open window.
When I open Computer and search with b, it shows the folders that include a b.
If I open usr and searh with config, it shows files and folders that include config.

Before a search was recursive and if you knew the name of a file you were able to found it. Now it will be much harder to explore the file system.

The Dash also behaves strange. When I search for var, the Dash shows the log and crash folders, which is nice, but not the var folder.
