Still no luck:
[user at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ nautilus
cannot open display:
Run 'nautilus --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
[user at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ nautilus --display=0.0
cannot open display: 0.0
Run 'nautilus --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
[user at CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$
