Nautilus cannot handle “computer” location on Ubuntu(Karmic Kaula)
Problem:
Last week i have experiencing error during opening Computer, Network Folders, Destop and Recycle bin on Ubuntu Karmic Kuala. And flash drive cant do the automount anymore.
The error says :
Nautilus cannot handle "computer" location
I found out that i have upgraded my glib library under /usr/local few days ago.
Solution:
Remove /usr/local
sudo mv /usr/local /usr/local.old
create /usr/local
sudo mkdir /usr/local
restart your computer.
Try to check you computer folder and its working! Good luck!
Updated: correction from Amar Patil, Thanks….

Thank you very much sir! I was beginning to lose hope in Ubuntu as a whole
, but now all my problems are fixed. I will be more careful next time I try to update a system library.
