Get Ximian's Nautilus packages, they're built against Moz 1.0.0 (which
they're also distributing). Works perfectly here.
I've learnt that whenever any GNOMEish package delivered with a distro is
plain ancient or FUBARed, getting the Ximian equivalent package usually
helps... :-P I've used Ximian's GNOME distro before, gotta love their Red
Carpet, but on my YDL PowerBook I've finally got GNOME set up the way I
want it, and installing Ximian's version would stuff up menu hierarchies
et c.

ftp://ftp.ximian.com/pub/ximian-gnome/yellowdog-22-ppc/ (or your closest
mirror)

There's no YDL 2.3-specific Ximian GNOME distro yet, but their 2.2
packages work fine for me at least.

/me is anxiously waiting for someone to package GNOME2 - imagine Nautilus
being at least a 10th as fast and usable as DirOpus Magellan on my
040/25MHz Amiga... ;)
