Vincent,

It still happens after a fresh reboot (just came in this morning to the office 
and bootet my system, Factory snapshot).
ps ax | grep nautilus shows me a running nautilus, nevertheless I do not have 
any dektop icons (sadly). executing it repeatedly shows every time
another process id, so I have to believe that it actually never starts up 
completely and then tries respawning:

dle3ams@3120-2914:/tmp/unique> ps ax | grep nautilus
15917 ?        Sl     0:00 nautilus
15933 pts/1    R+     0:00 grep nautilus
dle3ams@3120-2914:/tmp/unique> ps ax | grep nautilus
15937 ?        Sl     0:00 nautilus
15949 pts/1    R+     0:00 grep nautilus
dle3ams@3120-2914:/tmp/unique> ps ax | grep nautilus
15937 ?        Sl     0:00 nautilus
15953 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep nautilus
dle3ams@3120-2914:/tmp/unique> ps ax | grep nautilus
15937 ?        Sl     0:00 nautilus
15957 pts/1    S+     0:00 grep nautilus
dle3ams@3120-2914:/tmp/unique> 

All this brought me on a plan (yes.. thinking can sometimes help) to finally 
check my .xsession-errors log file and yes.. plenty of them:
Initializing nautilus-share extension
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NCP::InitXplat::Exception'
Initializing nautilus-share extension
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NCP::InitXplat::Exception'

If I wouldn't knew better I am almost certain that this is the Novell client 
messing with my system.

so> zypper rm novell-nautilus-plugin
and YES! Nautilus just kicks happily in... 

So the problem is solved (and NCL just proven once more to not be a solid 
application, and somehow bug reporting against it appears useless when used
on openSUSE)
