I have installed gentoo 2004.3 from scratch and then GNOME. When i start the gdm i have that error. Here is some output that can be helpful. >nautilus -c running nautilus_self_check_search_uri running nautilus_self_check_file_utilities running nautilus_self_check_file_operations running nautilus_self_check_directory FAIL: check failed in nautilus-directory.c, line 1803 evaluated: g_hash_table_size (directories) expected: 1 got: 2 >nautilus - (nautilus:8152): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 896 (gnome_vfs_uri_ref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed (nautilus:8152): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 916 (gnome_vfs_uri_unref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed (nautilus:8169): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 896 (gnome_vfs_uri_ref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed (nautilus:8152): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-cancellable-ops.c: line 248 (gnome_vfs_make_directory_for_uri_cancellable): assertion `uri != NULL' failed (nautilus:8152): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 916 (gnome_vfs_uri_unref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed Multiple segmentation faults occurred; can't display error dialog > gdb nautilus (nautilus:8178): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 896 (gnome_vfs_uri_ref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed [New Thread 32771 (LWP 8196)] (nautilus:8178): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 916 (gnome_vfs_uri_unref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed (nautilus:8196): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-uri.c: line 896 (gnome_vfs_uri_ref): assertion `uri != NULL' failed [New Thread 49156 (LWP 8199)] Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I have stoped the compiling of gnome sometimes and then I tried to fix the problem remerging several times the gnome appz and gnome dependencies, nautilus... but it didn't fix the problem...
you haven't provided your 'emerge info' like you should. looks like a gnome-vfs problem, maybe related to hal to me.
