I'm going to try installing FreeBSD and GNOME 2.7 in an emulator to see

Not for me. It refuses to add or change anything. If I associate gedit
with a .c file, close the properties dialog, and try to open the file, I
get the "Couldn't display $file." error. Upon reopening the dialog, it
still shows me the "No applications selected" message.

Sigh. Any tips on running Nautilus under gdb? :-)
