User Feedback :: How do I get emelFM to work

I just downloaded and ran 2.4. Booted fine, detected my network, but EmelFM will not open. I double clicked it, right clicked it and selected superuser, but nothing. Anybody know what I need to do? Thanks.

Try running it in terminal and see what it says.

/usr/X11R6/bin/emelfm: line 2 : 1026 Bus error /usr/bin/X11/emelfm.bin

and each time I type emelfm at the promt I get the same error but the Bus error # keeps advancing by 2... 1028, 1030, 1032...

Have you installed anything? Are you short on ram? Do you get a bus error on other gtk apps, like firefox or gtkfind?

This shouldn't happen, as far as I can tell, unless you made some damaging changes to your system or maybe if the installation failed at some point.

The path to emelfm.bin looks unusual, but i can't see how that would be a problem since /usr/bin/X11 is (or should be) a link to /usr/X11R6/bin

No, I just downloaded it and burned a cd and ran it. Only played around with it a little bit. Tried firefox, was able to get to this forum, but when I tried to log in firefox would close. Didn't install any other apps or change the system, just a straight live boot off the cd. Maybe I'll try downloading it again from a different mirror and burning another cd. Oh, and I have plenty of RAM, 1.5 GIG.
