ANOTHER WORK AROUND I've tried the solutions mentioned above without any luck. So I did a bit of experimentation and found a workaround.
I copied the "File manager" launcher found in usr/share/application and renamed it. (In my case "File Browser Docky") I opened the launcher in g-edit:- sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/"File Browser Docky".desktop and edited the entry to look like this -------------------------------------- [Desktop Entry] Type=Application Name=File Browser Comment=Browse the file system with the file manager Exec=nautilus /home Icon=system-file-manager Name[en_GB]=File Manager docky --------------------------------------- Notice that I have added a file path at the end of the Exec line which points the the folder I want to open, change this to the one you want to open. for example Exec=nautilus /home/reginald/music/sugarcubes OR Exec=nautilus /home/ronny/pictures/muckypictures Save the file and drag it to Docky. Hope this helps someone.
