Opening Nautilus changes KDE plasma desktop to Gnome desktop

Tue Dec 28 19:06:29 UTC 2010

Due to some longstanding bugs in Dolphin I must occasionally use the
Gnome file manager Nautilus for specific operations. However, whenever
I open Nautilus the KDE desktop is replaced by the Gnome desktop. The
KDE Plasma panel remains as it is, and no Gnome panels appear.

What could cause this, and how can I prevent it? This is on Kubuntu
10.10 with KDE 4.6 beta 2. Thanks!
