This issue on my Dell Vostro 2510 with NVidia Geforce 8400m was resolved with the patch file above. Thank you Jack-Xiao!
For those new to applying a patch, here is what I did.
- Downloaded patch file (/home/myuser/Downloads)
- Followed this handy blog post to download the source and recompile the Apt Nautilus package (easy)
- To test that a simple recompile and reinstall of this package did not resolve the problem I installed the new .deb package and reboot (Nope, no luck, but my background did flicker on the external monitor)
- Applied patch with instructions above cat /home/myuser/Downloads/nautilus.patch | patch -p1
(Thanks kroq-gar78)
- recompiled package
- sudo make clean
- sudo make
- sudo make install
- reboot
- Success! Thanks again
