I use Nautilus almost exclusively, so I was surprised when it began 
(seemingly) randomly locking me out of certain folders in my home 
directory, or showing certain files as empty documents. The owner was 
set to my user, so not being allowed to view the files or directory made 
no sense to me, even though I could access everything as root. Then I 
attempted to access the directory with Konqueror, and quickly discovered 
the folder was using "Advanced Permissions" and that the folder was set 
to disallow everyone the "Enter" permission. I easily corrected this in 
Konqueror and was able to view my files again in Nautilus. Is Nautilus 
unable to handle these advanced permissions or is this a bug?
