Description
I can't start nautilus from the overview. My cursor will start the spinning animation for a few seconds, and then nothing. I can open nautilus fine from the terminal.
Looks like every time I try: I get the following messages from Logs in this order: dbus-daemon: "The EBookBackendGoogle instance for "Contacts" is shutting down." gnome-session: "JS LOG: Recieved error from DBus search provider nautilus.desktop: Gio.IOErrorEnum: Timeout was reached" gnome-session: "JS LOG: Recieved error from DBus search provider org.gnome.Documents.desktop: Gio.IOErrorEnum: Timeout was reached" gnome-session: "JS LOG: Recieved error from DBus search provider bijiben.desktop: GIO.IOErrorEnum: Timeout was reached" gnome-session: "JS LOG: Recieved error from DBus search provider org.gnome.Photos.desktop: Gio.IOErrorEnum: Timeout was reached" nautilus: "Could not register the application: Timeout was reached" gnome-session: "Window manager warning: Log level 16: AT-SPI: Error in GetItems, sender=org.freedesktop.DBus, error=The name :1.51 was not provided by any .service files"
Obviously most of these are not directly related to nautilus, but these messages pop up every time I try to launch it.
I'm using the Arch packages is [gnome-unstable], if that matters. Also something that occurred to me; I run Linux from a USB 3.0 external HDD, so file IO is probably slower than most machines. IDK if that is what is causing these timeouts or not. Might be a red herring.
