Howto: Fix Gnome Do Home Folder Bug on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala
If you've had a problem opening the Home Folder with Gnome Do, basically if I add the Home Folder icon to my docky or even find it doing a search, it simple wont open. Well I did some poking around and found a fix.
Step 1
Open up your Terminal under Application->Accessories menu and run the following command:
gksudo nautilus /usr/share/applications
This will basically open up your file manager as root so you can edit the Home Folder executable.
Step 2
Scroll down the list until you find the Home Folder icon and name. Right click on it and go to Properties and under Command change the line to the following:
nautilus --no-desktop --browser . <-- Note: Fullstop not a typo!
Note: After the word browser there is a space and then a fullstop, this is deliberate, make sure you do this!
Simple click close and exit the file manager, Terminal and now if you use Gnome Do to open up your home folder it should work!
Note: You may need to logout and log back in in order for this to take affect.
