If that is the problem, then either one of these two things will work:

1) Wait for Emel to load the directory
2) If 1 doesn't work, edit /home/user/.config/emelfm2/cache and change the lines pane1=[some dir] and pane2=[some other dir] to something else.

No dice. I replaced every instance of "/home/user/.config/feedcircuit..." with "/home/user" and then check to make sure the changes too with vi. Yup, they took. Cache file no longer has "feedcircuit" in there anywhere.

But I open up emelfm2 and the url for the leftside pane is: /home/user/.config/feedcircuit...

Any other ideas?

reinstall is one way.

The other way would be to delete the /home/user/.config/emelfm2/cache file and edit the config-en_US file to make sure that directory is not specified anywhere.

If you run into this problem running it as root, then the files to edit are in /root/.config/emelfm2

Yes, I am running as root! Perfect! Thanks!

....nope, didn't work. that root config file is totally empty. And I didn't see anything in config-en_US.

I would have just uninstalled, but it's been my experience that config files get left behind. Guess I could delete them, eh? and then reinstall. I'll give that a try. Thanks much.

I deleted all config files, uninstalled, and reinstalled. All's good now.

Thanks for the help. I would not have known that there is a root config at /root/.config

Thanks, i just verified that my version 0.5.0 install does infact remove the config files but not the cache files... i guess i should remove those too.

Now that its working why dont you check out the /var/lib/dpkg/info directory!

Just Kidding... dont bother Although its very useful for checking out issues like this it takes a long time to load even through openssh.

Hola Pipeline,
While this thread is active, I was hoping to jump in and ask about something that happens to me when I run emelfm2 from root.

After entering the command xterm reports:

emelfm2[10763]: GLIB WARNING ** Gtk - Icon cache '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache' is invalid
bad string content
\

xterm repeats ^ that about 40 times before opening emelfm2.

I'll take a wild guess and figure '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache' has something to do with it but what, I don't know.

Why does emelfm2 concern itself with '/usr/share/icons/hicolor/icon-theme.cache' all of a sudden?

Yo, dude, try: gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor/
(as root)

Well the GLIB WARNING # has changed to 22166 but I still get the same text (about 40 times) before emelfm2 loads.

I have somewhat newbie question about EmelFM - How do I "right click" in N810, to get access to launching plugins and other options..
