SliTaz SliTaz Forum archive

This forum is now a read-only archive

The SliTaz community has moved to Maille, a forum made for SliTaz.

We looked hard for a replacement for this aging forum, including a move from bbPress to FluxBB last June. But spam bots now get through sign-up even with mail confirmation, and these forum engines are barely maintained anymore. So we wrote a forum in the SliTaz spirit: small, fast, no JavaScript, works on old machines and in text browsers. Everything here stays readable.

Dropbox only opens in the browser

I installed dropbox, but when i click the tray icon, it opens in the default web browser (firefox). I would like it to open in pcmanfm instead.

In the preferences there is no option to do so.

Does anyone have an idea on how to do this?

Re: Dropbox only opens in the browser

EUREKA!!

I found this answer from alanyih in: http://alanyih.blogspot.it/2010/01/slitaz-dropbox.html

tux@slitaz:~$ tail -n 26 /usr/bin/get-dropbox | head -6

# Symling to have Dropbox in PATH and fake nautilus

cd /usr/bin

ln -s ../lib/dropbox/dropboxd .

ln -s /usr/bin/pcmanfm nautilus

I have no precise idea what the second-last line does, but it works!

Thank you alanyih, thank you internet!
