Package: gnome
Version: 1:2.22.2~5

When I login to GNOME, I get this error :

1) Nautilus

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.20.0-7

Error:
Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error.

Details:
Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error from Bonobo
when attempting to register the file manager view server

2) Panel

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.20.3-5

Error:
The panel has encountered a fatal error.
The panel could not register with the bonobo-activation server (error
code: 3) and will exit.
It may be automatically restarted.

My system was working fine till I shutdown/restarted my system and
tried to login to GNOME. The only thing that I did before logging
out/shutdown was to connect to ftp site using :

Places -> Connect to Server

menu option in nautilus.

After I connect to server, an icon with connection name as label
appeared on my desktop. I didnot unmount the connection before logging
out.

I am a complete novice and I do not know if this is the real issue.

I am not able to use GNOME due to these 2 errors. please, help me get
my good system back to working state :-) . Also, please let me know if
you need to know anything else.

Thanks and Regards
