hello there i'm trying to make krusader my default file manager...so when
i'm double-clicking on a directory it should be opened by Krusader...i try
to set it up correctly in kcontrol->kde components->file
associations->inode->directory and choose Krusader in the application
preference box but when i double-click on a folder it pops up an error
message saying "kdeinit could not launch '/usr/bin/krusader'...could someone
tell me how to make krusader the default file manager?? thanks...

Seems like you were successful making krusader the default. It also seems that 
krusader is broken. I suggest trying to start `krusader` directly from a 
terminal (konsole or whatever) to see if there is something useful in an 
error message. 

Perhaps you need to run revdep-rebuild...
Or just `emerge krusader`.

well "revdep-rebuild -p" gives no errors...i still reemerged krusader with
the
useflag "debug" and when i run it from konsole it gives the following output
"jrn23@ ~ > krusader
krusader: Initialisising useractions...
krusader: 10 useractions read."
still when i try to open a directory from the desktop it gives me the same
error
"kdeinit could not launch '/usr/bin/krusader' "...something else i could
do??

I don't really know, because I have never used krusader, but see below:

Have you looked at the access rights/ownership of /usr/bin/krusader just in 
case there's a fs corruption or something else amiss?

this is what 'ls' gives me for both applications...the access rights seem to

be the same for both...

It's probably this:

alan@nazgul ~ $ krusader /home/alan/
krusader: Unexpected argument '/home/alan/'.
krusader: Use --help to get a list of available command line options.
alan@nazgul ~ $ krusader
alan@nazgul ~ $ krusader --help
Usage: krusader [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [options]

Krusader
Twin-Panel File Manager for KDE

Generic options:
  --help                    Show help about options
  --help-qt                 Show Qt specific options
  --help-kde                Show KDE specific options
  --help-all                Show all options
  --author                  Show author information
  -v, --version             Show version information
  --license                 Show license information
  --                        End of options

Options:
  --left <path>             Start left panel at <path>
  --right <path>            Start right panel at <path>
  --profile <panel-profile> Load this profile on startup

So it would appear that krusader doesn't start like a regular file 
manager, and 'krusader %U' won't work.

Dunno why it won't launch from your terminal though, it does fine here 
on mine. As a last grasp at straws, what's your output from 

ldd /usr/bin/krusader

i don't know how you got the impression that it won't start from my

i said something like that...it starts just fine issuing 'krussader' at
konsole...however
'krusader /home/jrn23' gives me the same error you posted...

Ah, OK. I understood (assumed?) that when you posted this output:

"jrn23@ ~ > krusader
krusader: Initialisising useractions...
 krusader: 10 useractions read."

that the command failed. I don't get any terminal output at all here 
when I run it like that. I see from your other post that it's all fixed 
now.

Looking back, it's actually kinda obvious now why it was failing. 
Hindsight - it's an exact science :-)

you did the trick...i tried something and it worked...in "file
associations->
inode-directory" i put krusader as the default application but using the
following command " '/usr/bin/krusader' --left %u --right
/home/jrn23/Desktop "
and now it opens every directory i double-click on...i wouldn't have noticed
it
without your help...thanks again for your help...

[gentoo-user] Make krusader default file manager

[Danis Petkakis]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 521 bytes --]

------------------------------
hello there i'm trying to make krusader my default file manager...so when
i'm double-clicking on a directory it should be opened by Krusader...i try
to set it up correctly in kcontrol->kde components->file
associations->inode->directory and choose Krusader in the application
preference box but when i double-click on a folder it pops up an error
message saying "kdeinit could not launch '/usr/bin/krusader'...could someone
tell me how to make krusader the default file manager?? thanks...
