Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

i use ubuntu 9.10 x64
when i set the default console app to konsole ,this causes nautilus-open-terminal from right click menu not to work anymore.also when in the dialuge that pop up after clicking on a executable script in nautilus ,i select run in terminal it doesnt work.
running nautilus from a console shows this error when selecting to "open in terminal" for folders , or "run in terminal" for script files :

konsole: Unknown option 'x'.
konsole: Use --help to get a list of available command line options.

this is because the argument send by nautilus are adaoted acording to gnome-terminal app , so they are not compatible with kde konsole.
can somebody tell the maintainer on nautilus package to fix this?
i dont think its that hard to at least add a check in the script to see which console app is default and use the necessary argument for that app,or just ignore the user prefred console and use gnome-terminal directly.

Having the same trouble with 32bit 9.10. Really it seems just like a small issue of passing arguments.

I also notices that Konsole no longer uses the --ls option, maybe this is what is causing a problem with optn-terminal?
