unfortunately not:

the file is there, yes, I can view it plain text
But when I put the "help:" in front of the path then I get the error
message. I tried
help:/usr/share/gnome/help/nautilus-user-manual/C/nautilus-user-manual.sgml and also 
help:/usr/share/gnome/help/nautilus-user-manual/C/nautilus-user-manual


what else could it be?
