Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Problem description:
When running nautilus as sudo user and clicking the 'Computer' icon in the tool bar, an error is returned, the error reads:
"Could not display "computer:". Nautilus cannot handle "computer:" locations." nautilus remains at the folder it was previously.

Expectations:
I expected (when I ran nautilus as sudo and clicked the computer icon) that the computer icon would respond as it does as a regular user.
