Elaborating a bit on my previous command: after plugging in the external drive (250Gb fat32) the drive icon appears on the desktop immediately, the drive is mounted and accessible from the terminal and/or using gvfs- ls. Double clicking the drive's icon causes some system disk activity but no nautilus window opens, no error messages, no crashes or stacktraces. Double clicking again on the drive's icon a file manager window eventually opens. If I "safely remove", unplug and plug in the drive again I can open a file manger window double clicking the drive's icon just once.
