I am using Ubuntu Karmic. I noticed weird behaviour in file/folder icons today.
1) Some of file and folder icons became bigger/smaller in size.
Some had an icon embedded on them. The icon resembles that of tomboy notes. The `notes` tab for those unusual file/folder properties had `F#` text. When I rename such a folder/file it gets back to normal size. But when renamed back again, it becomes smaller/bigger again.
2) Nautilus could not open some of those folders(not all). Nautilus simply exits without showing any error messages when opening those folders.
3) When I logged in today, my desktop icons where shockingly big(Each icon about half the screen size). I selected all and chose `restore icon's original size`, which brought them to normal size. I could not reproduce this behaviour and so I could not get a screenshot of it.
I have added some screenshots.
I don't use root and I don't remember doing any package upgrades recently.
Could this be a bug or an unwanted program causing problems?. Anyone had this problem before?.
