More info on how to turn off gvfs and current status of the fm. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/SubTeams/TestingSubTeam/pcmanfm2Testing export GIO_USE_VFS="local" can totally turn off gvfs. Anything that crashes after this are pcmanfm bugs since gvfs is not involved. Then you can find how ...

PCManFM2 can work perfectly well without gvfs. The errors you saw are caused by trying to do auto-mount, for which there is a new option to turn it off now. The design of GIO should allow working with local files without gvfs. If this is not the case, it's a bug. If you turn auto-mount off, it shoul...

I only made this question, because if we put a .desktop file on desktop, the application name and the icon aren't showed. Still, I think keeping gvfs more of a modular dependency would be helpful, with more direct FS access always there as a fallback. Just my thoughts - I don't really know all of w...

The correct way to do this is modifying /etc/passwd or do this with user management tools. And also the environment variable $HOME should point to the directory you want. That's all.

After endless waiting, here comes the first public tarball release of next generation PCManFM. But don't expect too much. This is an Alpha release. :-) Everybody loves screenshots.

The use of sudo is now gradually replaced by policykit.

I really like PCmanFM and am happy to see it evolve.Since i am not a programmer i can not help you, but i have a tip that would make PCManFM stand out in the Linux file ma...

Thank you.
It's fixed in lxpanel 0.5.4.1.

Since what you need to do can be done with a simple command line, it's not needed to write a program for this. Please take a look at 'zenity'. This is the right tool for you. http://library.gnome.org/users/zenity/stable/ Use zenity to choose the file you want with GUI, and then, pass its returned va...

I hacked lxdm, and currently the latest code in lxde svn repo is using gtk+ to provide a more descent UI now.
Please get it tested. However, the launch script has some compatibility issues. So it won't work on some distros.
Anyone know what's the better solution?
