10 – Installing nemo as filemanager and 5 great tips

Installing nemo is quite simple. If you used the amd scripts it is already installed.

sudo pacman -S nemo

Then you set nemo as the default application via "exo-preferred-application" or via the menu "Preferred Applications" if it is not already set.

Solution 1

Nemo expects gnome-terminal to be installed so install it with

sudo pacman -S gnome-terminal

Tip : there is also a transparent gnome-terminal called "gnome-terminal-transparency"

We found the solution on the wiki of Arch Linux at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nemo
