    Looking For A Different KDE File Manager

    I am getting used to Konqueror but I would still like to try an alternative.

    I have been running Ubuntu for a year or so, I tried Kubuntu at first but it was so buggie at the time that is how I ended up at Ubuntu. I tested Kubuntu's dapper flights and it has improved so much I upgraded to Kububtu 6.06. Can someone recommend an alternative to Konqueror for me ?

    You can try Nautilus, Gnome's file manager.

      That is one of the thiings that used to crash KDE ! Is that fixed ? I love Nautilus but do not want to crash my Kubuntu. What do you think ?

        So you're saying Nautilus crashes in KDE, but Konqueror's fine, but you just want to try something else other than Konqueror?

          Yes, that is correct, I just want to try something else. Konqueror works fine. But in a old version of Kubuntu, I think it was in 5.04, nautilus did crash KDE for me.

          Saying that, a lot of other things crashed Kubuntu at that time also until now, my system just did not like something, software, hardware or whatever.............lol

            Other alternative File Managers would be ROX-filer (ROX/Xfce) and Krusader (twin-panel file manager/KDE). I personally haven't tried those out so I can't really comment on them.

              hi,

              I'd recommend thunar. Real cool stuff from Xfce.

                Adept package manager or apt-get couldn't find Krusader and I did not have any luck at compiling the .tar

                But I did install thunar, so I will try that for a while and see if it is something that I would rather use.

                thanks all,
