No Nautilus on Home Folder

Hi,

When I open up the places menu from the GNOME panel, I click on 'Home' and my home folder opens in Konqueror.
If I un-merge Konqueror, I get this message:

I thought I'd bump this to see if anyone has any ideas yet.
Not only do I hate things not being right in the first place but it's also really annoying to keep having to go down to Computer and navigate to the home to open up my home folder :twisted:

.

Cheers,
Dave.

I'd like to bump this, too.
On my system it starts emacs when I go to "places" or "desktop"
(and don't say, that's a feature :twisted:

. I like emacs but not if I want nautilus)

I searched gconf but did not find anything.

OK, I found it!

I somehow changed the default program to open folders.

To reset this:

Open nautilus via command line or the places/Computer menu
right click on a folder (doesn't matter wich one)
select preferences
select openwith
change from whatever there is to "open folder"
close everything.

Cool yeah thanks. I found this out elsewhere but forgot to post it here lol.
Thanks for bumping and reminding me, even if it did take me ages to come back and post this!
