Oneiric 11.10 – No detail view on the file manager Nautilus? Use Thunar.
Use Alt + F2 and type in:
gksu nautilus
Then you get to use the adult version and use can select a view “compact” and add extra columns etc..
But… it does not look as if these setting are saved, which is annoying.

Plan B
Use Thunar, install via the software Centre and it will ask if you want a launcher created.
Also install the thunar-archive-plugin (an Archive plugin for Thunar file manager).
Or PCManFM which is very nice and simple, and no bloody breadcrumbs!
Ooh it also has a root mode built-in nice :-)
