that rpm unfortunetly is of beta quality.  It doesn't come with 
anyway to start fam.

what you need to do is as root

# (/usr/bin/fam -L & )

then as your user restart natuilus

$ nautilus --quit

should do that and then it will respawn and have fam support.

-L is for local only so the fam daemon will not repsond to other hosts.

this still takes a little bit of time for nautilus to be notified if 
you want it to be instantanious you need to patch your kernel with the
imon patch from sgi.
