Hi drago01,

If I login on my F22 box to a gnome on wayland session, no nautilus is 
running (maybe it crashed when loggin in), so no menu appears (for 
example for "Open terminal") if clicking the right mouse button. So I 
can't confirm that nautilus is running well :-(

If the trying to start nemo, then nemo dumps core:
Glib: ERROR:ghash.c:373:g_hash_table_lookup_node: assertion failed: 
(hash_table->ref_count >0)
Aborted (core dumped)

Kind regards
