4Pane is a multi-pane, detailed-list file manager for Linux. It is designed to be fully-featured without bloat, and aims for speed rather than visual effects.
There are three things that set 4Pane apart from other file browsers: speed, lack of bloat, and a four pane interface.
Since upgrading to 12.04 my file manager panes are black and no file names are visible. I can see them if I highlight them all, but that is not much use in practice.
Can I change the background colour of my f-m pane??

Thunar is a new modern file manager for the Xfce Desktop Environment. It has been designed from the ground up to be fast and easy-to-use. Its user interface is clean and intuitive, and does not include any confusing or useless options.
I've been trying various terminal emulators lately, from the built-in gnome-terminal, aterm, xterm, wterm, to rxvt.
Is it possible to add a pane to Thunar, like the default of krusader.org? I know XFE has an option to do so, and I really enjoy XFE, but it doesn't pick up any of my external hard drives.
The file manager utility more than any other system app on any computing platform is the workhorse of daily computing tasks. Linux users have numerous file managers as choices. Depending on the distro, usually one or two default apps are preinstalled -- but these might not be the best options.
Is there a specific mount point to use for a partition so that it would appear separately in the side pane?
I mean that it would appear separately in the left pane of PCManFM or Thunar the way windows-partition and external usb devices appear.
(I do not mean it being the /home partition.
The Synaptic package manager's main window used to look similar to this (up to at least version 0.63):
Note the three panes.
However, in version 0.75, it looks like this:
So where did the detailed description pane (bottom right, first picture) go? And how do I reinstate it? This is really a make or break feature for me when browsing packages quickly.
