hmm - when I added that desktop image, my comment was erased. I inadvertantly typed "preferred-browser" in comment 6 where I meant to put sensible-browser.
Indeed, sensible-browser brings up firefox as expected since $BROWSER is set to firefox. However, the gnome default web page is (as shown in image) epiphany and clicking on the project url button brings up epiphany instead of firefox. If I select firefox for the default gnome browser (system - preferences - default applications), nothing get launched. The default install of ubuntu 8.1 seemingly thru 9.1 seeming does not allow firefox to be brought up with boincmgr. This was also noticed when Dotsch_UX 1.2 was built by the author. -- BOINC patch 003 launches the wrong browser https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/353372 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
