When I rebooted, the folders created where on the desktop but I couldn't delet them by dropping them in the trash. When I put them in the trash they were both in the trash and the desktop. When I checked the Desktop by the terminal, the folder where still on the Desktop even after I deleted them with the "rm" command. Sounds like file change notification isn't working. Can you update to the latest version of gamin, log out and try again? I did updated gamin, loged out and no change. I do not understand step 3 and 4 ... How do you "Create a folder on the desktop" or "extract the files on the desktop" ? Then how do you "Go see for the folder with nautilus" ? Do you mean launching a new nautilus, double clicking on an icon on the desktop, what else ? Be extremely precise please ! If you're not precise enough that we can't reproduce this there is little chance that the bug will be fixed quickly. Daniel Ok, for "Create a folder on the desktop" step, I mean of opening gedit, chossing to save the file, going to the desktop (with the save file window) and to create a new folder on the Desktop. For "extract the files on the desktop" I mean to open any .tar.gz or .zip file with fileroller and to simply extract the files on the Desktop. Theses are only example of how to reproduce this bug, but there is a lot more of way that are all similar for the thing that you save or create something on the Desktop by a program. When I say "Go see for the folder with nautilus" I mean to only close all the windows of programs and go look at the Desktop. Like if you were just starting the computer and that no program is running. One last thing: what I was saying about putting files of the Desktop in trash is no more a problem. I can put files in trash from Desktop without any problem. Maybe because of the update of gamin, maybe not, I don't know. Thanks for helping Thierry I can confirm the issue of items saved to the ~/Desktop folder not appearing on the Desktop. Using gedit I saved a file to ~/Desktop. File does not appear on Desktop, nor does it appear if viewing this folder with 'File Browser'. File does exist in 'ls ~/Desktop' output. Selecting the Reload button in the file browser causes the new file to appear in the Desktop and in the browser window. Same for directories created using the gnome save as... dialog. $ rpm -q gamin gamin-0.0.12-1 $ ps ux | grep [g]am_server john 9848 0.0 0.1 2856 1440 ? S 22:05 0:00 /usr/libexec/gam_server I think I know the source of the problem now, this is a duplicate of 133665, I should have a fix over the week-end hopefully, Daniel *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 133665 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
