It depends on the desktop environment. GNOME uses Nautilus KDE 3.5 uses Konqueror KDE 4.x uses Dolphin XFCE uses Thunar
Ubuntu uses GNOME, therefore Nautilus and Kubuntu is KDE 4.x and therefore uses Dolphin. There are other desktop environments such as LXDE, Openbox, Fluxbox, and Enlightenment. If you go to Distrowatch it gives the top 100 distros and if you click on one it will list every package or you can just Google the distro and go to its web site. As for listing drives you can use a GUI or commandline. It is your choice. Ubuntu lists all drives in the media folder, but not all distros do it this way. If they are in fstab then they may be listed under mnt. >From the CLI you can list drives and partitions with: *fdisk -l* (as root) or: *cat /proc/partitions* or: *parted -l *(as root) * * *Depending on the distro you can use either sudo or su to become root.* * * *Roy* On 22 March 2010 23:56, Dos-Man 64 <chairs...@mail.com> wrote: > I need to do this in code.
