Could anyone tell me how set up konqueror as default file manager in opensuse 11? I tried your way, but it gives no result

Yes, I added it for system_directory.
I use ‘dolphin %u’. It opens “/home/sil/” but not system:/home, media, etc.

I’m using SuSe 10.3.

I don’t like konqueror’s long startup time, so I’d like to use dolphin…

except it doesn’t open the system:/ directories even with the %u option applied.

When I did the upgrade from 7.0x -> 7.1, I had Dolphin shoved down my throat, when I was perfectly fine with Konqueror. Thanks for the tip on how to change it _back_. Why the upgrade didn’t respect my previous choice baffles me…

Thanks for the post. I used it in Gutsy to go back to Konqueror, as Dolphin annoys me
