When I right click and try to 'Open in terminal', I get a new terminal window with directory set at home. I wanted to get my head around the thing, so I tried using nautilus as root using the terminal to see what kind of errors it spits out. Amazingly, everything there works like a charm. Can anyone help me figure out what's wrong?

What isn't working as you expect?
If I understood correctly, terminal always opens the shell in home directory, instead of the directory where it was opened in nautilus?
In any case, what terminal emulator you're using? This works for me with gnome-terminal.

When I change directories in nautilus (lets suppose I change it to ~/Downloads/MyFolder) and I have something to tinker here and there using the terminal, I usually right click inside the the nautilus window and choose 'Open in Terminal'. Now theoretically, gnome-terminal is supposed to open set in the ~/Downloads/MyFolder and not in the user home.But that does not occur in my case. gnome-terminal opens itself into my home folder. Now this problem does not occur whenever I try to run nautilus as root.
