Nautilus failed to Start

Sat May 9 07:00:55 UTC 2009

Hello everybody,

I'm using intrepid ibex on two of my laptop (Lenovo 3000 N200) and
since few days i'm receiving an error saying that nautilus failed to
start, the system is recommanding me to kill bonobo. When i'm doing so
and restarting nautilus it's still doing the same. That configuration
and install was working for long time now and i didn't add or remove
nothing. Early this morning i switched on my two laptop and one of
them is working perfectly well, giving me a chance to backup
everything before reinstalling the complete system (i get the complete
repositories set -6 DvDs- no need for me to download certains packages
-excludes updates) and i should mention that i don't have internet at
home, means my systems are not up to date since a while. But i do
believe that there is skilled people in this mailling list that will
help me to understand what going on.
In the same time i'm planing to totally move from intrepid to jaunty
today afternoon, want to be sure that jaunty wont freeze or do
something else because i experienced few problems with my lenovo when
using hardy heron on my laptop (sound & video drivers problem).

Thanks for help.
