Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Using Ubuntu 8.10 and Nautilus 2.24.1.

The shortcut to open a new Nautilus window should work even the desktop is focused.

Reproduce:
* Click the desktop to focus it.
* Enter Ctrl+N.
...and nothing happens.

Expected:
The same as when I enter alt+home - a new Nautilus window with my home folder showing.

This seems to be working correctly in the last ubuntu development version (zesty). Is it still a problem for you?
