i gave it a shot (yeah I know it's evil, just for testing) to run nautilus from a superuser terminal, the output is this: Note: The very same errors are found in my ~.xsession-errors file Warning: Unable to create "trees" RDF storage.

Note: In Sabayon 5.0rc1 this does NOT happen.
Sabayon uses Nautilus 2.28.4 aswell!!!
