<p>After I installed nautilus-open-terminal, when I clicked the icon on unity panel to open my /home folder, the folder just stayed there for no more than 10 sec and then disappered. So I removed it, and it is OK now. But the language input icon disappered, and I used unity --reset. Is this a bug? </p>
