I am using Ubuntu 11.04. my sources.list is the default one, I have not change it. I just updated Nautilus package in Synaptic manager and after restart Nautilus looks like Gnome3 Nautilus with an ugly theme. System theme is still the default. I also can not right click in the desktop. How can I restore previous Nautilus and desktop. I am providing preview of Nautilus

@JorgeCastro, I don't think so. From the position of the side pane, it looks more like GTK3/GNOME3 Nautilus (the real problem, it sounds like) being unable to use GTK2 Ambiance (secondary problem). – zpletan Oct 03 '11 at 01:34

You're going to add more detail to your question on what exactly is going on, that doesn't even look like nautilus from 11.04. – Jorge Castro Oct 03 '11 at 02:21

PPAs are not stored in /etc/apt/sources.list, but in several files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. I'm sure you must have added some other repositories, because that's not the version from 11.04. – Jo-Erlend Schinstad Oct 03 '11 at 04:13

you may try to find and download the .deb package of the needed version of Nautilus from here http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and then install it using command like `sudo dpkg -i nautilus.deb` – Mirzhan Irkegulov Feb 26 '12 at 17:32

@shantanu - this is related to the gnome-settings-daemon. Have you tried following the suggestions in the linked question by Jorge?. Since you asked the question have you updated your installation and still reproduce the problem? – Mark Rooney Feb 29 '12 at 20:45
