Hi all,
i'm using Gnome 2.6 in FC2 and a few hours ago, nautilus started to crash whenever i tried to open my /home/x folder. I tried to reboot but nothing changed.
I tried to open nautilus from console as root and i could see the folder correctly. But as a standard user, the app keeps on crashing and reopening, even though i press the 'close' button.
Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanx in advance.
ps. i think that a yum update this afternoon (a few hours before the problem started) upgraded gnome-vfs. Could this make any sense?
Thanx for the quick reply.
I forgot to mention i've already tried that, but nautilus just crashes and i get back at the console prompt with no errors printed...
next step then is to run it inside gdb (ie. run "gdb /path/to/nautilus" and then enter "run" and hit enter), and hope the problem can be reproduced. when it crashes, enter "btf" and hit enter, this will dump a backtrace of whatever library and function caused the problem.

I finally managed to get some info on the crash, but i'm very qualified to understand exactly what the following means:

Tried that but the lib is already the latest version....
The fact that root CAN open my home directory but the standard user only crashes it shouldn't possibly mean that something is wrong with permissions and/or user settings?
I finally managed to find out (after reporting a bug to bugzilla) that the problem was caused by a postcript file which i created accidentally in my home folder and it's svg icon caused nautilus to crash... (unbelievable....i'm really getting to love Linux! )
