Bookmarks in nautilus only in menu, not in the shortcut tab
On my latest Ubuntu install, using version 12.04, my bookmarks are not there.
I can ctrl+d to add bookmarks, but the bookmarks part of nautilus is missing altogether so they are not showing.
i.e. the sidebar panel doesn't have a bookmarks section.
The bookmarks section will not be shown until you add a bookmark by either pressing Ctrl-D or dragging and dropping in the side bar.
Once you add a bookmark, A section will be created with Bookmarks name and will show your added folders.
So far the best workaround has been to add a different File Manager from the Software Center (pcmanfm).
This doesn't have a bookmarks section but it does allow me to drop items into it as links.
