RH 7.2 Changing Nautilus


Does anybody know if there is any way to get rid of Nautilus in RH 7.2. I have a Pentium 133 and it runs VERY SLOOOOW. The past file manager wasn't that bad. Is there any way to get it back?

Thanks.

Remove it and ignore dependancies???
UGGGGGGGHGHGHGH

no.

OK, start up a normal x session, gnome/nautilus should start as normal. they open a console and do a ps -aux. look till you find the line relating to nautilus. look for its PID and then do a "kill -9 PID", where PID is the Process ID of nautilus.

then log out of gnome, and start x windows again. hopefully it will have saved your session last time, and now nautilus wont start. then bring up the gnomecc (control panel) program. down the bottom below the bit on sawfish it says something like session properties. then go to the start up tab and add in gmc.

Then restart and all is good, and you wont have a messy discusting system with unmet deps
