Hopefully an easy one, I have just installed docky on my media center and it refuses to display the correct icon for nautilus when I have it open. Instead I get an ugly grey box. Anyone know how to fix this?

According to a few questions on Launchpad (1, 2, and 3), you might actually try looking in ~/.local/share/applications/ instead. I had an issue with a missing icon for Firefox in Do that I was able to fix that way.
Make sure your natilus-browser.desktop on /usr/share/applications is good.
Open it with gksu gedit /usr/share/applications/nautilus-browser.desktop and make sure in [Icon] it says «nautilus».
