After some of the last updates, I didn't notice which update in particular, I've been getting "Couldn't display" errors from nautilus.

Namely, opening Places like Computer, Network and sftp servers result in the "Couldn't display" error.

There was a nautilus update yesterday. Perhaps that's caused the problem, though my machine runs fine still, and nautilus will display everything I've asked it to so far. Perhaps worth trying a reinstall of nautilus, nautilus-data, and libnautilus-extension1.

If that's no help, then, I'm afraid it will need someone more clever than myself.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried both a reinstallation of those three components as well as a complete removal of all nautilus components, reinstalation of nautilus and a log out/in with the same errors.

I did disable some runlevel items. Perhaps there is a dependency there.
