4.5 RELEASE  -  GENERIC Kernel  -  I386
        - oaf-0.6.7
        - nautilus-1.0.6_1
        - bonobo-1.0.18
>Description:
      After standard installation from the Release-CD's, with Gnome and Sawfish (or Enlightenment) as desktop environment and the Nautilus fm package, Nautilus doesn't start. When trying to start Nautilus the message: "Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error from OAF when attempting to locate the factory. Killing oafd and restarting Nautilus may help fix the problem."
 I tried to solve this issue by setting the oaf path with oaf-sysconf to point to the directory containing the Nautilus .oaf files (no path was specified before), and by running oaf-slay before starting Nautilus - no success.
 To verify the problem I reinstalled and didn't add anything to the standard installation with Gnome+Enlightenment except the Nautilus fm package from the release CD, and it was still not possible to start Nautilus.
>How-To-Repeat:
      1.Install FreeBSD 4.5-Release from CD using Sysinstall
       (all possible options were set to German or a ISO 8859-* charset)
       a) choose Kern-Developer + XFree86
       b) choose Gnome+(Sawfish or Enlightenment) as desktop environment
       c) install the Nautilus fm package (x11-fm -> Nautilus)
       - finish installation
      2.Start Gnome and run nautilus -> the error message described above           
         appears and Nautilus doesn't start

optional: Set the OAF path to the directory containing the *.oaf files (/usr/X11R6/share/gnome/oaf/), then run oaf-slay and try starting Nautilus again -> the error message still appears and Nautilus doesn't start
