Do you get any errors if you try to run nautilus from a terminal?
Comment 5 Gilles Dartiguelongue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-05-31 22:14:26 UTC
When I have a problem with the session I generaly either:
- kill nautilus and restart it from command line if it doesn't come back by itself
- remove ~/.gnome2/session, this files contains some data to restart applications like you left them but I hit cases where it is somehow corrupt and need to be removed/cleaned up for me to be able to login successfully again.

Does any of these works for you ?
