I guess I am alone in seeing that Nautilus no longer displays .jpg, .gif

Nope seems to be a general problem with file associations. Like you, i
dont see gnome setting any file associations. In my mind this is
either a problem with the gnome-vfs2 package or with the
gnome-mime-data package. A quick search through bugzilla doesn't see
it reported yet. I would suggest you file it against gnome-mime-data
in bugzilla, after you make a search through the 'zilla yourself of
course. I could easily have missed the report.
Though i should test this with a fresh user and see if the problem persists.
Nautilus windows are crashing often, I'm not really sure why as
sometimes I haven't been doing anything before the crash. often I have
to completely reboot to get back to barely operable. Looking over the
logs has not helped determine anything (maybe i don't know what I'm
looking for!)
Sorry i havent seen nautilus dieing off on my box, not sure where to
point you about that.
