This one should fix the problem.
Comment 2 Mathias Brodala 2006-10-01 11:59:56 CEST
Sorry, the problem remains even after applying this patch.
Comment 3 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-10-01 12:00:51 CEST
Did you terminate Thunar prior to trying the patch (Thunar -q)?
Comment 4 Mathias Brodala 2006-10-01 12:04:47 CEST
> Did you terminate Thunar prior to trying the patch (Thunar -q)?

No I didn’t because I saw no Thunar processes in the process list. But I did so now and it works!

(Why is Thunar running in the background and no process being shown in the process list?)
Comment 5 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-10-01 12:20:23 CEST
Maybe you overlooked the process.
Comment 6 Mathias Brodala 2006-10-01 12:21:57 CEST

By running „ps aux | grep [Tt]hunar“?
Comment 7 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-10-01 12:23:18 CEST
Dunno. But if Thunar is running, there's a process; it's the definition of a process (a running program). ;-)
