Install Nautilus-open-terminal. In Debian/Ubuntu it's as simple as
sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
Then restart Nautilus.
YMMV per distro.

Well, the reverse happens for me, when a window that I dragged to
un-maximize it is dragged back to the top of the screen (without
releasing the mouse button).

But it doesn't happens directly with a window that was not maximized
before (GNOME 2.22 ArchLinux). Si I think this is a bug as well.

Hi,
maybe it's a bug but if it works always this way (not only when you
unmax window and don't release button drag it up) it could be nice ...

Ah okay, that *is* intentional... it just allows you to abort the un- 
maximize operation if you start it accidentally.

If you drag the window to un-maximize it though, then release the  
mouse button, dragging it back to the top of the screen should have no  
effect.

Cheeri,

AudioCdrom/ Cdrom Drive problem

Hello Gnomes!

I'm just at installing Gentoo on my brandnew Macbook and I have a little 
problem with Gnome. From time to time, an icon labeld "Audio CDrom" 
appears on the desktop. At the same moment the mouse is stopping to work 
properly. It's like the system is at very high load but a few thinks are 
still working. This is happening for a kernel with grsecurity and the 
mactel patches. Without these patches I get a "flickering" "CDrom drive"
icon on the desktop - from time to time it pops up and vanishes a few 
seconds later.

Any help?

greetings,

bienchen

Open Windows not seen on Panel

I do not know where to correct this problem.  In KDE and in GNOME under
other users when I open a window there is a rectangle opened on the
lower panel bar reflecting it and showing windows open in other work
spaces.

Somehow it has been switched off in one user.  As I do not want to trash
all my settings in the dot directories I need to know which service to
restart or where to configure it to be up.  It was working since the
install in gnome but last month it quit.

Gnome2.22 installation and libbonobo ERROR

I'm trying to install Gnome 2.22 through jhbuild.  I've done:

jhbuild bootstrap
jhbuild sanitycheck

Both of these commands completes successfully. But when i do:

jhbuild build

The build process doesn't complete successfully. The building process get 
stuck while building libbonobo. I get error:

Seems like libbonobo is picking up the old glib and gobject lib path i don't 
want. Though I've set the new path to PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Is there any workround 
for this problem? I just can't make jhbuild to pick up the write path. Any 
insight into this?

Probably you mean the Worspace switcher (described at
http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/overview-workspaces.html.en)

It seems the user dropped accidentaly the workspace switcher out of the
panel (which means, removed from the panel).

The user only need to add it again to the panel according the
instructions available at:
http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/panels-addobject.html.en

And then choose 'Workspace switcher'.

Regards,
