I too had the same problem.  I even opened a thread out of desperation:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7578015

I am running a Jaunty upgrade from a clean intrepid install.  My
symptoms were exactly as outline in the first post.  It coincided with
an Update, installing VirtualBox to run WM7 (don't ask! I just need it!)
and adding msttcorefonts.  As a result of wanting to use files on Ubuntu
and WM7, I was sharing one of the folders to use files across OS;
however I couldn't open any file as a user from any folder whether it
was shared or not.  If I opened Nautilus as root, everything opened
fine. I did uninstall msttcorefonts but it didn't help.

I checked all the permissions and ownership of the files and the
~/.openoffice,org/ files but all seemed in order.  I renamed them all in
any case, all to no avail.

I then performed the partial upgrade and it works.  Thank you very much.

I will re-establish the share and start using Virtualbox and let you
know what happens.

I hope this helps.  Please let me know if you need any other details.
