the nautilus view not refreshed correctly sometime

[frimilden]

When moving a folder that contains video files or other files from the home directory or any sub-directory within the home folder to the desktop the folders fail to show on the desktop. They are not hidden as a control-h does not show them and they do not have an . in front of the names. This is very random and only happens about 60% of the time. The only way I have been able to get the folder(s) to show on the desktop after they have been moved to the desktop is by going back to the home folder and double clicking the 'desktop' icon in order to bring up the 'desktop folder'. Then the folders automatically appear on the desktop.

SYSTEM:
Ubuntu 9.04 32bit (upgraded VIA update manager from 8.10)

Frequency:
Often and unpredictably

Scope:
Seems to happen more frequently with folders containing video files I.E, .avi, .mkv, etc... and only from the home folder to the desktop

Lastly: Many edits as I am new to reporting and somewhat fresh using linux (4 months) :p

Thank you for your bug report. The bug should be sent to the people writting the software (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME) by somebody having the issue

Can you try to reproduce this issue in latest version of nautilus (2.28.1 ships in Karmic)? Thanks!

@Kamus
Confirming: The bug is still present in my Ubuntu 9.10 [GNOME 2.28.1], last updated 2009-NOV-19.

could you try if that's still an issue in lucid?

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance.
