[opensuse] Default File Manager
Hey All, I can't seem to find how to change my default file manager to konqueror from nautilus in gnome. Everything I try in my gnome configuration files kills my ability to login.

The filemanager in gnome is responsible for somethings like painting the desktop icons. No nautilus, empty desktop. I did use another one some versions back, but konqueror, never. However, you can easily fire up konqueror inside gnome, I do often. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

is it possible to get fish:// working in konq in gnome? Last I tried it did not, gave a message about missing some lib or other. P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hm. The obvious suggestion would be to install some lib or other. Did you try that? Of course you need a whole slew of KDE stuff to get konq working in gnome and I'm not surprised that to get full functionality you need a bigger slew. -- Jos van Kan registered Linux user #152704 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

well yes, obvious indeed. But which package to install, in order to get the particular needed lib, was not so obvious.

I wondered whether it might be as simple as adding a path statement, or ... something. As on the box that I tried this on, I had both desktops installed "fully" (or so I thought ...)

I've never tried, but it might help knowing what libs; or even better, what exact message. You know you can start konq from an xterm and get a load of messages, don't you? :-) And first check wether in a kde desktop the same thing works. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
