Hello!
I just wanna ask if there is a graphical file manager with drag & drop feat. like eg. nautilus or konqueror? I am running fluxbox on debian sarge.
I could probably install etiher one of the above, but they take like 40-50 megs each.. don't know if thats a reasonable size for a file manager..
Gentoo is very good...I used it all the time until I got used to midnight commander (if you didn't specify drag and drop, I'd say go with mc definitely). Only thing is Gentoo tends to crash sometimes for no apparent reason.
When I'm using a GUI file manager it's usually Gentoo but you might like Endeavour2 if you prefer tree-style managers and don't want to mess with the IDE junk.
The xfce4 file manager is incredibly simple, I'm not very used to it, as I just use Konqueror when I am in xfce4, so I don't have a good review for you. What I understand your question as, the xfce4 file manager is what you are after, although, once again, I have not tested it alot.
Distribution: Fedora Core 1 & WinXP Pro & Gentoo 1.4 & Arch Linux

I found emelfm that I have grown to love, it has two pane file exploring function with simple two-click action to move/copy/remove files along with other neat functions. It was in the Gentoo portage system but I'm sure you can find it at sourceforge.
