I suggest you try to redo the virtual install with a new virtual drive (that is in Virtualbox, is that right ?)

weird, I downloaded thunar to see if it would let me... then I looked at the permissions and it said my ~/.theme folder was write only, but I tried to change it and it said permissions were inconsistant do I want to fix it... I said "duh!" well I clicked yes lol and it seems okay now.

A wife told her husband to whisper dirty things into her ear.

The man then replied, "The kitchen, the living room,

Then there was a fight!
