Hi. First of all thanks.
You are right :) It works :)
But it would be a little trouble some to lunch all applications
(remember it also affects Save/Open Dialogs) using dbus-launch. Maybe
there is some global workaround ? I think that if dbus is not present
nautilus should just start without using it? Or maybe run it by
itself? Any suggestions about it?
Regards Michal.
