RE: .desktop files in Garnome 0.30.1

["Peter de Bruine" <p de bruine dialocid com>]

Thanks for your answer, i had an error in my .xinitrc so it didn't work ok.
Now it does. Another, perhaps stupid question. Is there anyway to have
Nautilus reuse the windows? When i open the Computer icon and the filesystem
i get a new window, that's the same behaviour as Windows NT4! I want it to
use the open window, not open a new window.

BTW, Please only post to the mailing list. Otherwise i get your mail twice.

Thanks
Peter

You need to export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$GARNOME/share, as suggested in the
installation instructions.
