dunpealHi. Thunar 1.6.11 (i.e. current in Xubuntu 16.04) has always been crashing for me repeatedly. Is there a good way to replace it with something functional?13:44
knomeyou can install any file manager you want from the repository13:44
dunpealIs there one that works well with Xubuntu?13:44
knomebut more likely you might just want to upgrade to 18.04 eventually...13:45
knomei think some people use pcmanfm and it should integrate relatively well13:45
knomei mean technically anything "works well with xubuntu"13:45
knomebut for example stuff using qt would be slow to run if you didn't have other qt apps13:46
knomeetc...13:46
dunpealpcmanfm seems to work nicely, thanks!13:47
knomenp13:47
dunpealIs there a way to completely replace Thunar with PCman?13:53
knomeyep, in settings manager, look for preferred applications, then under tab utilities13:55
knomethat should make pcmanfm open whenever you want to open a file manager13:55
dunpealThanks again.13:56
