 |
|
Hi,
I was looking for a Thunar alternative and PCManFM is perfect, however I'm getting some errors/problems.
The "Trash" bookmark (trash:///) is not working I get a "Operation not supported" error and the folder is empty:
| Code: | ** (pcmanfm:15147): DEBUG: FmJob error: Operation not supported
** (pcmanfm:15147): DEBUG: FmJob error: Operation not supported |
And I found out it uses ~/.local/share/Trash folder.
The "Applications" bookmark (menu://applications) is also empty.
For both this bookmarks if I click on "Properties" I get segmentation fault...
Is there a solution for this?
Can I re-route those bookmarks for the correct folders, like ~/.Trash and my ~/Software?
Can I at least delete those bookmarks?
Thanks |

Yeah same, I guess it's about the DE but there should at least be an option to remove those bookmarks... whatever it's not like it's troublesome, its just dumb. |

| I could be mistaken, but I think you need gvfs for trash to work in pcmanfm. |

I experience the same issues, although I do care about the resolution of at least the trash thing.
The issue is that pcmanfm will *put* things in my trash when I delete them. But then to delete / restore them I need to actually trek into .local/share/Trash/files with a terminal, and this is bothersome...
(I am using pcmanfm-9999 but experienced the same behavior in 0.9.7) |

Any news about this?
I tried to start /usr/libexec/gvfsd-trash manually but it didn't help. 
//EDIT: I'm using IceWM. When I put the folowing in my .xinitrc:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch icewm-session
and start it with "startx" everything is working fine.
If I start IceWM with the help of LXDM and then start pcmanfm with:
ck-launch-session dbus-launch pcmanfm
it's working, too.
Now I'm searching for a way to start icewm with ck-launch-session and dbus-launch from LXDE.
I tried to put a shellskipt executing this in /usr/bin and edited my /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf to use this by default (session=/usr/bin/starticeWM.sh) but this doesn't work (if I try to login I'm getting back to the login screen).
P.S. Sorry for my bad english.

You could turn off using trash.
.config/libfm/libfm.conf -> use_trash
Whether gvfs is needed depends on which version of pcmanfm/libfm you are using.

That's not the right solution (see the EDIT in my previous post).
But I still need the solution for LXDM + IceWM.

Does the trick! Should work with any WM.  |

Okay, my solution is only yours if you are using LXDM to log into your X-Session.
If you use another DM try to figure out how it's starting fluxbox and try to change it (if it's starting it like that:
try to change it to:
| Code: | | /usr/bin/ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session fluxbox & |
for exapmle).
Alternatively try to start pcmanfm like this:
| Code: | | /usr/bin/ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session pcmanfm |
Which isn't the best solution but should work. |

I say... wow.
In my case emerging gvfs with "samba" USE-flag set was enough to get it to work. |

That sound's like a (hard) bug to me!
Samba shouldn't have to do anything with this issues and enabling samba shouldnt solve this.
The original problem is a security problem (polkit/consolekit) and you are bypassing the security with samba? As I sayed: This shouldn't be possible and is a security risk. But I'm not willing to reproduce it right now. |

you can link /etc/xdg/menus/lxde-applications.menu to /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu, and empty the files under ~/.cache/menus. Then open your pcmanfm
Good luck! |

So it is 2019 now. pcmanfm's "Trash Can", "Applications", "Devices", "Network" and MOST IMPORTANTLY (for myself) "sftp" still do not work.
Still no perfect solutions for these so far? Or is there a better alternative of pcmanfm with "sftp" feature?
Thanks! |
