File manager in XFCE

I have a question about xfce. I'm running it on mandriva2006. Everytime i start a file manager (xffm or nautilus) the desktop color changes to black, some icons appear on the desktop and the menu dissapears (in xffm) or changes to Gnome menu (in nautilus). Why is that?

Had the same problem using Xfce and MDV on one of my pcs. So I switched to emelfm. Think it is a common problem of Xfce/MDV. Because I read on other boards about the same problem.

Because XFCE has its own (halfbaked yet) filemanager, named Thunar, which is much better than nautilus/emel/xffm, even halfbaked.

Oh, by the way it does not happen here- but I do not use Mandriva. maybe its Mandriva-specific.
