(Delay in response: this clean installation of 11.10 with no exotic installs melted down, so that I could only log in on tty! I have just reinstalled 11.10 from scratch, clean. The bug reported here recurred.)
Ah, yes, there's a key caveat. Logged in locally, nautilus behaves okay. I mostly log in remotely from a machine (both with Internet addresses) right next to it. When logged in over ssh -X, nautilus comes up fine but fails when asked to show Trash or Computer.
In fact, once I have launched nautilus locally ONCE, it seems to work okay remotely, too. So that means to reproduce this I might need to reinstall. Weird. But still a problem for servers which may never get a local login.
