Nautilus crashes

[Michael D. Setzer II]

I can confirm that I see the same thing with VNC connection, but to add.
I have found that you can open a terminal window, and run 
/usr/bin/nautilus
That will then run, and it will show the desktop. Unfortunately, you have to 
leave that terminal running. So, not sure why the regular start fails, but one 
from a terminal window seems to work.
