Re: using gtk from nautilus plugin

[Ahmad Sherif <ahmad sherif public gmail com>]

You're welcome :). About obtaining debugging info from terminal, I think you should quit Nautilus first (nautilus -q) then launch it (nautilus --no-desktop). However, I'm not sure whether nautilus will respawn or not when you quit it. If it did respawn, I think you should edit /usr/share/applications/
nautilus.desktop as follows (A backup of it would be a good idea):
* Replace "X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true" with "X-GNOME-AutoRestart=false"
* Comment this line out "X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Desktop" by "#" at the beginning of the line. Actually I forgot why I did this but this how my is my configuration :).
* Add this line "AutostartCondition=GNOME /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop"
* Finally, I think you should restart your session, then try quitting and launching again.

Credits go to wrc1944 from [1] for the respawning solution.

Hope this will help you and good luck ...

Bests,

You're great. Thanks.

I tried that, however I did not get it to work.
I found one place that stated to debug I'd need:
 mkdir /tmp/testing
 export TMPDIR=/tmp/testing
 nautilus --no-desktop
But I never got any messages...
If you have any advice in this regard, I appreciate it..

yours,
Nils
