Galeon and Thunar

[Evan Cox]

Hi Anders

No, but I have not really tested konqueror with Xfce4 properly.
Konqueror uses it's internal 'filebrowser' (ie: it own qt dialog box) to
save a file when downloading.  I am unsure how to tell konqueror to open
Thunar to save a file to the home directory.... I don't think you can.
I am not a fan of the lightweight Epiphany file browser in Gnome, and I
am happy to see the back end of Konqueror after 4 years using it.  I am
unsure of how to trace the problem down.

Also could you also confirm that you do not have an issue with Evolution
mail client in Xfce4?  I have noticed that when leave Evolution open on
the desktop, over time (approx 1 Day) the swap file will increase by
approx 250MB.  When I exit Evolution it drops back to around 40Mb.   I
have a full install of Gnome, KDE and Xfce4 at the moment, but I want to
get away from KDE and run a lighter system.  Before you ask.....
everything is compiled via ports, and up to date.  Everything else is
solid and stable.   It must be something obvious I have not done (an
option when compiling) as I can not find any of these issues on Google.

I would be much appreciative if you have heard of anything that I can
check. 

Cheers

Evan
