[arch-general] Nautilus upgrade runs CPU at 100%
Hey everyone, I already sent a message about this earlier but no one replied. So, I'm giving this another try. My last message, I didn't know what exactly was going on, but I knew it happened since the last Gnome upgrade to 2.26. After searching around, it starts at the gnome-session call when it tries to load Nautilus. So, I downgraded nautilus back 2.24.2 and everything goes back to normal. Now that I've narrowed it down to Nautilus, can someone tell me what's going on so I know what to look forward to at the next nautilus upgrade, or what I should check so I can get nautilus back to 2.26. Thanks, Will

Are you sure this has nothing to do with the Xorg 100% CPU bug? Also, if you experience many "Starting file manager..." windows at startup, then you can workaround by showing desktop icons for now. -- Abhishek
@Abhishek: Thanks for the heads up. I re-enabled desktop icons and it's back to normal. I'm getting the tracking number so I no when to switch back. For everyone else, I did have desktop icons switched off and I did get many windows of "Loading File Manager" almost making my system useless. After switching desktop-icons back on and upgrading Nautilus back to 2.26, everything's back to normal Thanks, Will On Sat, Apr 11, 2009 at 10:31 AM, Abhishek Dasgupta <abhidg@gmail.com> wrote:
