Bug#259498: nautilus goes nuts when I click on a .jpg but no
viewer is associated

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.6.3-2
I'm running nautilus on top of fluxbox occassionally
with
$ /usr/bin/nautilus --no-desktop /home/greg
The problem:
When I click on a .jpg, nautilus opens up a desktop
window to cover my fluxbox root window. Then it brings
up an error msg window with "Can't Display Location"
in the title bar, which says
"Couldn't display "/home/greg/filename.jpg. Nautilus
has no installed viewer capable of displaying the
file"
Then I can't exit nautilus. If I try to kill the main
nautilus PPID, I get booted out of xwindows (once it
just did nothing, sorry, this part seems to be
irregular). If I kill a child pid, it kills all the
nautilus PIDs and I am out of nautilus.
But I would say the main problem is that nautilus
should not start a 'desktop' window upon reaching
error code if it was started with --no-desktop.
Otherwise, great job with the new version & keep up
the good work maintaining this!
