I have searched the web and failed. I hate to bother the group but I know
the answer is here. Thanks in advance.
My problem is how to configure galeon and firefox to use the right helper
applications on my Gentoo computers. For a long time most helper
applications, such as xpdf for PDF files, just worked. But during the
past few months, with the typical gentoo updates, I have lost the ability
to get the right application chosen for the different mime types. It
seems that over time the Linux desktop environment is getting more
complicated than a Windows computer and it seems like a sad state to me.
Either that, or I am missing some simple piece of information.
I have two desktops, both amd64. One wants to run gimp for each PDF
while the other runs adobe. I would like to change them both to use
xpdf or at least change the one from Gimp to adobe.
If anyone can give me a few pointers, I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
