Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

I have the latest (at 19 Dec  2008)  updated IBEX 8.10 - kernel
linux2.6.27.9 generic gnome 2.24.1 but also with KDE (probably 4.4.1.3 -
which apps I run in Gnome) Nautilus is 1.2.24.1-0ubuntu

On startup, the desktop appearance is usually the (correct) standard
Ubuntu orange Gnome.

However sometimes it istarts in KDE which has slightly different toolbar
icons and blue folder Icons, but works fine.

Other times it starts Gnome but the desktop image is displayed but with
no folder or disk icons  displayed (although both toolbar and apps bar
are displayed correctly and I can still find files using the 'places'
dropdown).

Rebooting usually results in the same wrong configuration. Switch off
and cool down generally works, but both take time.

 I did find a post with a Linux command to fix this for the session
which was something like 'stop nautilus' but I can not now find it again
or remember what it was. (I am an experienced user, but no IT training
or skill)

The system has to be shut down every night, and this effect has been
occuring two or three times a week for about one month or so.

This is not a serious bug but quite annoying because Ubuntu does more
than a 'proper computer' that jeering colleagues urge me to buy
(although nobody seems to have a good word for Vista).
