Nautilus and Nemo competing for my affections
Posted: Thu Feb 14, 2013 2:20 am
Hi,
I installed Mint 13 MATE and then added Cinnamon to the mix - giving me the option to have Mate or Cinnamon sessions.
Then I activated the backports repository and updated all the 1s and 2s in the update manager.
All went well and I am very happy - always now opting for the Cinnamon session.
However - Nautilus and Nemo are both installed (as is Caja) and there is some confusion - I want Nemo as my default file manager but when I plug in a USB stick (for instance) Nautilus starts. If I click on "home" or "computer" on the desktop, Nemo starts - which is how I want the whole system to act.
How can I stop this happening ? Is it as simple as un-installing Nautilus (and or Caja) in the software manager ?
One other thing - how do you make MP3s "preview" inside Nemo - in my previous version of MINT, when you hovered over an MP3 in the file manager, it played.....
Thanks in advance.
