How do I search using Nautilus-Elementary? As soon as I click the magnifying glass, the list of files in the folder I'm trying to search disappears and tabs for SourceCode, Video and Image appear (already with some results). Changing the option that defaults to 'This week' doesn't seem to help at all either. Am I missing something seriously basic here? All I want to do is a simple search within the folder or drive I've got open in Nautilus. Any help much appreciated.

How to fix the blank screen on clutterview problem on ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat
And here's the contents of the link in case it goes down:
Couple of days ago I installed “Nautilus Elementary” on my Ubuntu maverick meerkat. Strangely I was not able to enable clutterview. When I pressed F4 it just showed a black blank screen and that was real annoying. A few considerable search on google showed me the way to fix this, a comment on webupd8.com.
The Fix:
The problem is linked to a vblank issue which occurres in combination with Intel GFX cards and clutter services. To fix this edit /etc/environment by issuing the command:
sudo gedit /etc/environmentand add the line
export CLUTTER_VBLANK=noneSave it and reboot your system. Clutterview should work like a charm now.
