change Dolphin for Nautilus file manager

Post by peethagoras »

Hi.

I'm having problems searching for files using Dolphin. Has anyone tried changing Dolphin for Nautilus? What might be the pitfalls?

Any info/help would be appreciated.

thanks in advance.

Would be good to know your current setup. What distro are you using?

You could do it but you would probably have to install a ton of dependencies. You could try something lighter like spacefm or find out why you're having trouble with dolphin.

I have the same problem in KX-Studio 14.04. Googled a lot. Didn't find an answer. Now I use KFind to search for files.
