    Running Debian Testing 64-bit, and having a problem where Nautilus will crash when browsing any folder over network with video files. I have disabled the thumbnail function, so I really don't know what to do. Any ideas?

    I couldn't find anything like the problem you are having. Is Debian Testing a developer's version of Debian? Is is typically unstable?

    I have some more ideas; you can check the system logs to see why Nautilus crashed, or launch Nautilus using the CLI (simply enter 'nautilus') and browse to the SMB share. The terminal will display any errors. Please post them for us.
