It's not advisable, but you can run Nautilus if you use Gnome and then right click on Xming in
your taskbar and deselect Hide Root Window. That's not the best way.

You might be better off exporting a gdm session to display 10.

Of course if you wanted a remote desktop with all the fixin's a tunneled VNC works better for me
anyway.
