Hi.
So I have this issue - when I install Nautilus, it makes itself, not caja, the default, so when I open up one of my favorites from the Places menu in mate-panel, Nautilus, not Caja, pops up, and when I double-click on an icon on the desktop (a folder), Nautilus shows up. I don't want that.
The reason I installed it is because nautilus is a dependency of insync, and there is no way for me to install it WITHOUT installing nautilus.
Is there a way to make Caja the default for everything?
Thanks in advance.

From command line run mateconf-editor. Go to desktop > session > required components. Change filemanager to caja. I think that should fix your problem.

It has been a while since I have used gnome or nautilus, but I seem to remember an option in the preferences or whatever it is, to let nautilus handle the desktop.
Keep in mind, that this was serveral version back, so I am not entirely sure. I just remember when I started using openbox after being a (unhappy) gnome user, I got very frusturated when I continually had my gnome background and icons anytime nautilus was called.

Doesn't work. I tried it.

To my disappointment, it doesn't.

Manpages are hard to understand for me.
Can you please help me out here? (a little bit more, that is.)
