I just experienced this for the first time (Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64). Nautilus came up with a theme that reminded me of motif (gag). The suggestion by lhotari in #22 was effective in clearing it.
@Alexander Telenga: to make it work, you need to go to a shell and do "ps aux | grep nautilus" (without the quotes) and note the PID of the nautilus process. It will look something like this: your-user-id 2538 0.1 1.0 744556 42208 ? Sl 14:00 0:08 nautilus --sm-client-id 10f1e5588b647711d7128888650527035500000018260031 --sm-client-state-file /home/jonathan/.config/session- state/nautilus-1294783068.desktop The PID is in the second column, and it is 2558. Then, in the same shell, type "kill 2558" (again, without the quotes). Make sure that ~/.gconf/apps/nautilus is still gone (it should be; never came back on my system). The start Nautilus and it should now honor the system theme.
