This a great app, nearly good enough to replace the regular Filemanager. I'd suggest though to improve the multi-selection, since it's kind of hard to move to a new folder, if I have the multi-selection enabled. Also, the File sharing seems to be a bit.. icky, since if I launch it on portrait, it goes to horizontal and requires you to re-portrait the phone, to get it fixed.

Anyways, great app, I'll keep looking up to it and hoping, that it'll replace the stock Filemanager some day.

If we are in external memory, the state open terminal here, this terminal opens in / home / user "and not on the card.

I have the same problem with this application.
Thus I cannot use the app. anymore because I do not see the function I want to click on.

On my system I also have the "Enhanced Linux kernel for power users" installed and "Fix PR1.2 Missing Icon" as well.

Does someone know a fix for this problem?

Well this seems like a bug, every time i try and copy something(Doesn't matter) what size then this screen pops up. I wait a second then it updates and shows 0% of The real size.

You can move the folders and make symlinks to them in /opt folder
Just make sure there's no symlinks inside the folders you want to move (symlinks doesn't work on MyDocs cause it's a vfat partition)

EDIT:
Anyways, I don't recomend you to do this.
If you want to save space, then frist you should try doing this in /home/user folder. I've symlinked Quake3 and Kroll files to MyDocs and get a lot of space.
I love the app. Question: I have Kroll and would like to use Filebox to save space, but I don't want to mess anything up. What step by step process would you suggest for a Noob? The symlink idea seemed like a winner, but I need an explanation of how to accomplish this. Thanks.

If anyone's interested, I am currently using the extras-devel version. Today (didn't connect my N900 to the internet once yesterday) I saw the latest update for FileBox. Tried to update. Both HAM and FApMan are unable to install. Since HAM is utterly useless it gave no clues as to what went wrong - FApMan however said that dpkg reported errors - and told me to see the log for details.

So, can anyone hint where dpkg saves it's logs, so that I may copy what the log says and paste it here in case it helps the dev?

- Edit -

I tried /etc/dpkg/ and /var/log/ as two possible spots. I'll look around more as time permits, but I can't find it so far.

- Edit 2 -

Found the FApMan log - don't know where dpkg's log is, but this seems like it says something useful (I cut out all the reading package lists / diff files stuff before and after).
Code:

/usr/bin/apt-get -qsy --allow-unauthenticated -o Dir::Etc::sourcelist=/opt/fapman-cache/sources.list -o Dir::State::lists=/opt/fapman-cache/lists -o Dir::Etc::sourceparts="" --auto-remove install filebox

@Mentalist Traceur:
Seems you've lost /etc/sudoers.d/filebox.sudoers file. I don't know why.
But this is easy to fix: Make a new one.

@awesome:
Can you tell me if the icons exists?
The're located at /opt/filebox/icons (three folders with subfolders and icons inside).
And show me what's inside this file: /home/user/.config/cepiperez/filemanager.conf

Thank you CepiPerez. I reflashed to 1.3 yesterday, and it installed fine over that, but I appreciate you pointing out what happened. This way I know to look for that in the log next time.
