Not to respond to my own message, but I have got some more info on my problem :
When I launch nautilus, I get this message in /var/log/messages : Mar 15 11:38:51 socrate gconfd (alci-965): starting (version 1.0.0), pid 965 user 'alci' Mar 15 11:38:51 socrate gconfd (alci-965): No configuration files found, trying to use the default config source `xml:readwrite:/home/alci/.gconf' Mar 15 11:38:51 socrate gconfd (alci-965): Initializing XML backend module Mar 15 11:38:51 socrate gconfd (alci-965): Directory/file permissions for XML source at root /home/alci/.gconf are: 700/600 Mar 15 11:38:51 socrate gconfd (alci-965): Failed to notify listener 3338665986, removing: IDL:CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 Hope this can give a clue to someone more magic aware than I am :-) Le jeu, 15 mar 2001 09:18:08, franck routier a écrit : > Hello, > > Nautilus is broken once again on my machine.
