Gnome 2.22: Nautilus + fam = Problem [SOLVED]

Sorry, bad English:

Hello,
i really need some help. After my update (pacman -Syu) to Gnome 2.22, i have problems with nautilus. Normally when you download a file, you can see the file-size growing in the file manager (=>fam). That does work with Thunar, but stopped working with the new Nautilus. It is really annoying, when you have to push 'reload' every time to see the actually/newest content of a folder.

Any ideas?

You should not need fam running for that with nautilus. Nautilus should be able to handle that directly via inotify. That said I don't know if it is working in gnome 2.22 as I don't use it.

OK, this explains the different behavior between Nautilus and Thunar.

I must say, i am quite confused.
I installed Nautilus 2.22.2 with ABS. Looks better now, but maybe i tested 2.22.1 not good enough. When i download a file now (with firefox or wget), i see the creation of the file immediately but the file-size is not growing. After finishing the download, the file-size get updated. (Is this behavior new???) During recording of a DVB stream, Nautilus always shows the actual size.
