Since you aren't actually running the newer desktop (GNOME Shell is temporarily not working in Rawhide, we'll get it fixed this week, and the file management isn't fully there yet in any case), you can showing the desktop back on with: gconftool -s -t bool /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop true Of course, that once you've set that key you'll no longer get the default experience.

This is a fairly long-standing bug related to turning off "show_desktop" - the automounting is part of the Nautilus process, and when not showing the desktop, Nautilus just exits when there are no windows.
