I run into the same problem. I didn't know Nautilus relied on tracker, and one 
of the first things I did when installing gutsy was disabling tracker daemon in 
System>Preferences>sessions.

I don't search that often, but obviously searches never worked in
nautilus, I was using search -name in a terminal.

I should have got a warning by nautilus that searches don't work if
tracker deamon is off.

Also I second the option to have nautilus optionally not to depend on
tracker. I don't want any PC-wide index in my desktop. I doesn't make
any sense for me (a search across 20000 files in my home desktop takes 3
seconds) plus it can have security implications.

Thanks for hinting tat Places > Search still works, I hadn't noticed it.
