    Nautilus isn't designed to be run as root. When using Nautilus in way that it's not designed for, those messages look like expected behavior: Root doesn't have a display assigned to it, and root has no bookmarks.

  • Better perhaps to install nautilus-admin. This will give the option to open folders and edit files as admin. When I want to open folders on a Live or Persistent USB as root, I use sudo -H nautilus.

  • Warnings are NOT errors. And please never use sudo for graphical applications.

    Does this answer your question? How to be granted root rights while browsing files/directories with Nautilus

  • @karel: Which answer on that page are you recommending? gksu has not worked in ages and I mention nautilus-admin above.
