** Description changed:
When I login nautilus is unable to launch, which results in an infinite
spamming of "starting file manager" in the window list (they seem to
reach an equillibrium at ~20 where they are created at the rate the
close {presumably after failing to start and quitting similarly to
- manual launch below}). I also don't see any desktop wallpaper, only
- solid colour.
+ manual launch below}).
If I launch nautilus from terminal I get this message:
###
(nautilus:8776): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Message
did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)
###
Followed after a moment by:
###
(nautilus:8776): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not
receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a
reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout
expired, or the network connection was broken.
###
After the last message all "starting file manager" instances dissapear (or
rather, stops being spawned, and closes one by one until window-list is empty).
Whereupon they start spawning all over again, with exact same behaviour.
DBus is running:

I can find no relevant entried in ~/var/log/daemon.log
I can find no nautilus-debug* crash files in ~/
nautilus show_desktop value in gconf is set to true
I've had odd things when the issue seemed to go away after I ran apt-get
upgrade (which added several packages, none of which directly nautilus-
related I think), and then after restart it only happened for ~10s after
login, and then after shutdown and start it's back to original
behaviour, but I'm not completely sure about circumstances there...
I've had comments suggesting it may be unrelated to nautilus itself.
Issue started after recent upgrade (~12 feb GMT)
Running Jaunty on vmware, fully upgraded as of now (13 feb GMT).
