Whenever I press my usb drives in the unity launcher, I get the folder opened with gitk instead of with nautilus. The same happens when I connect them to the computer. How do I fix this? This is happening in 11.10.

  • You should edit in what release of ubuntu you're using. This was an issue for a while, shouldn't be anymore

Try this

gedit ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

If there are any lines that start like this inode/directory=then delete it/them

Save & try again. The most likely would be to see inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop, in any event remove any inode/dirctory= line(s)

The other fairly likely solution would be to do a update, you 'd probably solve with that

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
