Running "sudo pcmanfm &" generates icon errors and does not detach from terminal

[baz]

If you run "sudo pcmanfm &" an error message appears regarding icons, and the ampersand does not seem to detach it from the terminal. Is there a more elegant way of doing this?

Just create a symlink in /root to /home/tc/.gtkrc-2.0

sudo ln -s /home/tc/.gtkrc-2.0 /root/.gtkrc-2.0

Wonderful thank you - what about detaching from the terminal?

? Using "sudo pcmanfm &" it is detached, you can close the terminal window without affecting pcmanfm instance.

Oh you are right *blush* - it hung on the error msg and didn't go back to the prompt so I assumed it wasn't detached. Thanks again.

No hang.
The error message simply overwrote the prompt.
