Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

I've been having trouble with Nautilius for the past few days (since I upgraded to Intrepid), which i thought were all related to nvidia + secondary display. I could only open Nautilus on my primary display.

Now nautilus won't start at all. From command line, I see:

magicfab@magicfab-laptop:~$ nautilus

seahorse nautilus module initialized
