Hi Luca,

I don't want to say it in a bad way, but talk for yourself. I don't want any 
other file
manager than PCManFM. I like it very much, it is handy and light. I don't use 
it to
manage desktop icons and background because I just use feh to display a 
background and
no icons on the desktop. 

I have openbox-menu  - http://code.google.com/p/mimarchlinux/wiki/OpenBoxMenu - 
 for
dynamic applications menus in Openbox and tint2 as a panel. I could also use 
anything
else, such as keyboard shortcuts, or stalonetray... 

I would not give up on PCManFM.

Regards,
Mélodie
