Of course, you realize that : -you are using a outdated nautilus version (we are now at -9mdk) -you are using cooker packages (even recompiled) on an 8.2 system.. This is NOT supported by anyway.. So, before posting bug reports about cooker packages, ensure your system is FULL cooker.. > 1 - after a "nautilus -q", all my icons positions are lost, and all of > them place at the same place at the top left of the screen. ?!? -q is for quitting nautilus.. Since nautilus is used to draw desktop, if you quit it, you'll lose all your icons ... > 2 - A migration issue : my nautilus-1 scripts weren't taken into > account and didn't appear > in the menu, because the script directory isn't at the same place > anymore.

I think you probably are running old version of GNOME2 platform on your system.. Again, update to full cooker.. And check for errors messages in ~/.xsession-errors -- Fr�d�ric Crozat MandrakeSoft
