I just installed Arch Linux and installed LXDE following the instructions on the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LXDE
However when I try to start lxde with exec dbus-launch ck-launch-session startlxde
It says: cp: cannot stat /usr/share/lxde/pcmanfm/pcmanfm.conf No such file or directory
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

Re: Starting LXDE on Arch Linux
For starters, report the problem to Arch Linux. This should be the first order of business for almost anything: your distro is your primary support channel for how the system fits together.
Look in /usr/share/lxde/pcmanfm and see what file you have there. Then edit startlxde accordingly. My guess is lxde-common's idea of what the PCManFM configuration file is named is out of sync with pcmanfm's.

Re: Starting LXDE on Arch Linux
I hate to drag up this old thread, but archlinux still has not fixed the problem.
You have to make the directory and copy the file yourself.

Code: Select all
mkdir -p /usr/share/lxde/pcmanfm
cp /etc/xdg/pcmanfm/default/pcmanfm.conf /usr/share/lxde/pcmanfm/pcmanfm.conf
