How did you install gnome-commander?
Since version 1.6, gcmd stores most of its settings using dconf. The settings can be read out via gsettings or dconf-editor. Changes to these settings are normally stored at ~/.config/dconf/user, which is a binary file.
Is this file existing on your system and do you have write access?
Are there any errors popping up in a terminal when you run "gnome-commander -d a"?

** (gnome-commander:2546): CRITICAL **: void load_devices(const gchar*): assertion 'keyfile != NULL' failed
Please log into your desktop environment again as a normal system user (!= root) and try again the following command:
Code:
ls -l $HOME/.config/dconf/
If there is no file listed in this directory, it seems as if no dbus service is running, which is needed for gcmd to store settings in the dconf database (since version 1.6).
If there is a file but it is not writable, when change the access rights accordingly. (with chown and/or chmod)
I don't use Slackware, so I can't help you very much here, but I have searched some, hopefully helpful, links for you:
