Software :: Ubuntu 11.04 - Nautilus Tab Size Stretches For Each Directory

Jul 8, 2011

Just installed Ubuntu 11.04, which has Nautilus 2.32.2.1. When more than one directory is open, the tab for each directory s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s way across the screen, so all tabs added together take up 100% of the width. So with two folders open, each tab is 50% of the screen width! In previous Nautilus versions, each tab was just normal size. Cannot find a Preference to change this, and Googling for any solution brings up someone's previous query of this nature: [URL] and the fact that no one has responded! Is this an option that can be changed? Anyone come across this new "feature" before?

Ubuntu :: Nautilus And System Monitor Cannot See New LV Size

Aug 29, 2010

I was getting low disk space notifications so I used LVM to increase Ubuntu's volume from 10GB to 50GB. LVM and Disk Utility show the correct new size, but System Monitor and the Properties of the File System (in Nautilus) show the old, smaller size. Do I need to update something to get them to see the new size?

Ubuntu :: Desktop Stretches Out Of Monitor Viewport

May 14, 2010

I just installed Lucid Lynx and everything is running smoothly except one thing: The desktop stretches out of the viewport of my monitor. By desktop, I mean the menu bar and such (the UI), not the desktop background image.

I played around with the screen resolution, but if I set it to anything other than what the system defaults to (1600x1200), the display repeats the windows and such with a whole bunch of noise overlayed atop.

As a side note, this is a fresh install, not an upgrade of previous system, and I've installed all updates. I'm not sure what hardware information would be useful, so I'll just give you my model: Gateway W323-UI1

Ubuntu :: Nautilus Font Size Gets Huge In Listview

Jun 6, 2010

When zooming to 100% in listview the font gets huge, but only in the listview panel (see image). Where to reconfigure this to normal behaviour (I'd like the 100% fontsize to be the same as in the treeview in the left panel). I had this behaviour already with the previous relase of Ubuntu, and upgrading to 10.04 did not solve the problem.

Ubuntu :: Lost Default Icon Size In Nautilus?

May 28, 2011

some reason I lost my default icon sizes in Nautilus. This only appears to affect any graphic files like .jpg, .png, etc. that I keep in my "Pictures" folder. I also have this issue with video files that I keep in my "Video" folder.Currently I am running Ubuntu Natty and using the Ambiance theme that is customized with Faenznt icons. Nautilus is customized with Nautilus Elementary. Changing themes has no effect. The folders all appear normal and other icon file types appear normal, it's just my graphic d video files that are appearing small.Running dconf editor shows my icon setting is set to normal. I am enclosing a pic so you can see the folders display at a normal size, but the graphic files do not.

Ubuntu :: Change Icon Size In Nautilus List View?

Mar 16, 2010

Just wondering if it's possible to change the size of icons when Nautilus is in List View. I tried playing around with gtk-icon-sizes in the gtkrc file of my theme, but there doesn't seem to be a setting for it there. I could just zoom in/out, but when I have the icons the size I want them to be, the text is too small (see attachment).

Ubuntu :: Nautilus Always Opens An Extra Directory?

May 22, 2010

When I open a directory from the Places menu on the Gnome panel, two Nautilus windows open up. One is the location I asked for. The other is always "/media/Data/ZZZMaint/PC/R stats pkg". I think it may be to do with the fact that some time earlier I had created a launcher in the Main Menu - called "R documentation"', with command "nautilus --no-desktop '/media/Data/ZZZMaint/PC/R stats pkg' " (the idea was to have a menu item that opened up a folder containing a set of documents I refer to). I have since disabled that menu item but the problem remains. I would very much like to stop Nautilus opening this extra window.I've tried looking through gconf-editor but haven't seen anything that looks relevant. The extra window doesn't get opened when I run Nautilus from other places, but it always happens when Nautilus is opened from the Places Menu, regardless of whether I'm opening a drive or a bookmark.

Ubuntu :: Opening Current Directory In Nautilus From Terminal?

May 20, 2010

Like the title says, I want to be able to open the directory I'm browsing in nautilus.To clarify this, as I barely understand what I said, I'll give an example.

Code:
cd ~/what/ever/this/is/complex/path
Hmmm.... A lot of files in here with long complex names and I only want to move certain ones..... Better open it in nautilus with my handy dandy script/alias!

Ubuntu :: Make Nautilus Search In Current Directory By Default

May 14, 2010

I work on Ubuntu 10.04 with Gnome.When I open a directory, I can search with Ctrl-f (edited Ctrl-F instead of F3). However, the search starts in my home directory (the home directory is the default). That can be fixed by adding new criteria in the search results. However, I would like to change the default directory always to the directory or folder from which I start the search.How can I convince Nautilus to search by default for files and folder names in the current directory or folder (the one from which I start searching)?

Yesterday after downloading a file I tried to find it on the desktop where downloaded files are saved. It does not appear in nautilus but when I look for it from command line it appears to be there. I simply do 'ls' for this and that means its not hidden.Googled it for an hour to find a suitable answer but most of the posts focus on removing the in front of file name which is not the case here.

CentOS 5 :: Nautilus Cannot Enter/read Home Directory?

Dec 1, 2009

I have a problem from time to time. Now is such a time. Nautilus is not able to read/enter my own home directory. It can enter/read ANY other directory, but my own home directory. Killing the Nautilus process, doesn't help. Logging out doesn't help. I need to reboot to get nautilus to read my home directory. Sometimes, it suddenly appears after a couple of minutes, but not always. What is taking so long time or causing the hanging? What should I do?

CentOS 5 :: Increase The Size Of The /tmp Directory ?

Nov 10, 2009

We have a problem where there is not enough space in our /tmp partition. We are trying for fix our mysql database, and keep running in to the space issue... the error we are getting says:

myisamchk: Disk is full writing '/tmp/STGL3SGd' (Errcode: 28). Waiting for someone to free space... (Expect up to 60 secs delay for server to continue after freeing disk space)

Our /tmp partition is current set at 485M, but it is not large enough to handle the database fix...

Does anyone know of a work around - perhaps to assign different directory for the temp files?
