File Browser

I've got in my fluxbox menu the konqueror voice, but I've not installed KDE serie... And now, I'm without a good (x-speaking

) file manager...

First Question: I'm not interested of using KDE, is the better choose to install konqueror?

Second Question: If you think konqueror can be a right choose, how can I see what are its dependencies??

I'm sorry for my bad english, hope in some answer

Fabio.

Did you install xfce4? If so, you have thunar which is a decent file manager.

I saw just now thunar, it's quite good, it works... Can you explain me how can I check for dependencies of some package??

Thank you.

Unless I'm mistaken, the slackware package manager doesn't do dependency tracking.

I know that, in fact I ask for it because I have to install the dependencies by myself!

Try PcMan File Manager...its fast and light on the system resources.

I like ROX-Filer.

Have you tried mc? (the GNU Midnight Commander)
Its probably already installed.

Duplicate post, sorry

I'm using PCManFM, as has been mentioned. It's nowhere near an adequate file manager replacement for Konqueror, but it does the basics pretty well, and it does have tabs. I like it better than Thunar anyway.

Also a Fluxbox and Konqueror user, this is what I think is needed/useful:
kde-l10n-fr-4.2.4-noarch-1 # not mandatory; probably you will prefer kde-l10n-it-4.2.4-noarch-1 anyway

kdeadmin-4.2.4-x86_64-1 # probably not mandatory
kdebase-4.2.4-x86_64-1
kdebase-runtime-4.2.4-x86_64-2
kdebase-workspace-4.2.4-x86_64-1
kdelibs-4.2.4-x86_64-3

But as a file manager I mainly use Worker.

Thank you.

Use the ldd command on the binaries and shared libraries that come from the package. If you get 'not found', then do a google search on the listed shared lib.
