Yes, I can confirm this bug happens to my wife and I also. Using 2 different computers running Gutsy and only sharing a router for internet access (we are sharing nothing else).

We are working with various folders on the desktop rearranging large amounts of files, specifically .mpg files between folders (yes we both have large music collections that need to be organized). None of these folders have more then a normal CDs worth of music in them, they are not littered with hundreds of files, although the ~/home/username/Music/ will have thousands with all the CD titles stored there.

Randomly we are both getting a nautilus hiccup. Any folders currently open on the desktop become unresponsive. When clicking on a file in one of these folders the music note icon turns to a document style icon and will not open. Trying to open a new folder results in a dialog pop up stating:

The folder contents could not be displayed.
Sorry, couldn't display all the contents of "folder name".

We have both turned off the option to sample music files in Nautilus and have since rebooted since changing this option. This unfortunately does not fix the problem either. The only way short of a hard boot or soft reset of gnome desktop, is to kill the nautilus process and let it automatically restart.

Hope this explanation helps.
