I am using Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10 and have this EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I cannot do anything to make Firefox not ask me if it is my default browser each time (besides unchecking the box for that behavior). I have tried the "sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser" suggestion and the terminal informs me that it is the only program that provides web browsing. When I go to System --> Preferences --> Preferred Applications, the following is listed in the box for "Command" under "Web Browser": " /usr/lib/firefox-2.0/firefox "%s" ". When I change that to firefox "%s", it changes it back when I reload my browser and tell it that yes, indeed, it is the default browser, AGAIN.
Any ideas? -- Firefox cant cope with default browser setting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78204 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
