Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release: 10.04

2) apt-cache policy nautilus
nautilus:
  Installed: 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:2.30.0-0ubuntu4 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages

3) What I expected to happen is when I click "Places" then "Computer" it opens with no problem.

4) What happens instead is when I click on "Places" then "Computer", "Starting Computer" appears in the bottom taskbar, then "Starting File Manager" appears briefly then disappears. After a few more seconds "Starting Computer" disappears but the Computer window does not open.

This is my second time installing a Ubuntu 10.04 VM in VirtualBox 3.2.2 where problems occurred. The first time was from a known good iso downloaded from www.ubuntu.com, then burned CD, hash verified. This time was with the desktop iso downloaded straight from www.ubuntu.com

I cannot make a backtrace as I deleted the VM. However, this bug seems a result of a bug in VirtualBox (please seem upstream bug link), and not Nautilus. This bug is considered closed.
