spinning mouse cursor when using gnome shell

[frodo99]

When using the gnome-shell desktop environment in Ubuntu (tested on 11.10 and 12.04) there is an annoying bug with nautilus regarding the mouse cursor on nautilus startup.

When you start nautilus by clicking on the gnome-shell-icon the mouse cursor will keep spinning for at least half a minute. (sometimes there also is a spinning wheel on the top panel.

This happens only when you have nautilus handle the desktop.

I have found out when the bug occurs and when it does not:

Bug occurs when:

clicking the icon on the gnome-shell-panel
clicking on the icon of the gnome-extension (Frippery Panel Favorites)
clicking on the link to a subfolder of the homedirectory using the gnome-shell extension All-in-one-Places
clicking on the notivication which appears when inserting a harddrive of some kind

Bug does not occur when:

clicking on the link to the homedirectory using the gnome-shell extension All-in-one-Places
clicking on a direct desktop icon to the home folder or any other folder
starting nautilus via terminal

I also tested this using the ubuntu server version (12.04) and installing the hgnome shell manually without any unity files

This bug does not occur on Fedora or any other distribution using gnome-shell, therefore I assume it must have something to do with Ubuntu and Nautilus.

There is a simular bug on Debian:

I don't have this problem when launching from the Ubuntu Dock (gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock), nor from launching form Frippery Panel Favourites. I haven't tried the last one but I don't think this bug is reproducible then either.

All-in-one-Places doesn't work on GNOME 3.28 on Ubuntu 18.04:

```
TypeError: Gtk.HScale.new_with_range is not a constructor

I'm closing this bug as fixed, please change back to New if you can reproduce this on Ubuntu 18.04 or 18.10.
