Hi,
running F9 with Gnome as GUI. Since a few days, calling the menusPlaces->My Home fails with presenting an error popup:
	Could not open location 'file:///usr/people/backes/Desktop'
	No application is registered as handling this file.
(/usr/people/backes is my home directory). The same happens withPlaces->Desktop. See attachment.
On the other hand, klicking "My home" on the desktop runs perfectly.

Similar experiences?

All advice is welcome.

Hi,

I could solve the problem by clicking to some (arbitrary) folder on thedesktop with the right mouse button, the saying: "Open with Otherapplication" and chosing nautilus as app. Then the places menu has beenrepaired for "My Home" and "Desktop".
