Moving the trash icon makes nautilus crash

[Mårten Woxberg]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch)
Release: 8.10

nautilus:
  Installerad: 1:2.23.3-0ubuntu1
  Kandidat: 1:2.23.3-0ubuntu1
  Versionstabell:
 *** 1:2.23.3-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I set the Use Compact layout box. This seems to affect the desktop as well.
Now I can't move the Trash icon, if I click and drag nautilus crashes.
If I right-click I don't get the choice to empty trash even if there is files present.
Opening the folder works with both right click and double left click.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

There is no crash file.
Nautilus doesn't seem to produce any logs at all.
If Sebastian had read my Bug description he would have seen that I run Ubuntu intrepid and not Ubuntu Stable.

Thanks for your bug report. Please try to obtain a backtrace http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

I did read the description, the reply asking to use apport is a standard one to avoid having to enter the same text again and again
