Hi Ross, here seems to be the problem: ([EMAIL PROTECTED]:~)% gconftool --get /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command /home/peter/tmp/firefox/firefox "%s" I should mention I don't use gnome, but rather xfce4 so I have no idea what gconftool is or does, but an uneducated guess suggests its a way for gnome to tell applications what the browser and editor and the like are set to? Can it not just use /usr/bin/sensible-browser? Thanks for your help -- Peter Smerdon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
