    When you say it won't run, what do you mean? When you select Places >> Home Folder what happens?

    I'm not sure I understand what you are describing, but many of us had a problem with Intrepid mixing up nautilus with all sorts of other apps. I would get F-Spot whenever I tried to open a folder.

    Anyhow, try this:
    1. Right-click on your desktop and choose "Create Folder";
    2. Right-click on this new untitled folder and select "Properties" at the bottom;
    3. Go to the "Open With" tab and make sure that Nautilus is selected;
    4. Now try "Places" >> "Home Folder" again. If it works, go ahead and delete the untitled folder.

    Good luck.
