SpikeyKlitske Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Hi, im using mdk 10.1 CE for a while now and i am using the KDE desktop. KDE comes default with konqueror as the browser. I changed through the mcc the browser to mozilla, that is i can only enter something that konqueror represents itself as mozilla browser. Point is everytime i open a link in an email on a forum or whatever it is opened with konqueror and i would like it to be mozilla. I searched this forum but could not locate anything to this subject, could anyone of you please point me in the good direction to solve this puzzle? Thanks a million Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted October 22, 2004 Report Share Posted October 22, 2004 Configure My Desktop-> (blank mind) OK, look for a page that you tell kde what programs to use. It's there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 to fill in Ix's blanks............ :P go to Configure your Desktop (IE: KDE Kontrol Center). it's in kicker->system->configuration. go to components->file associations. type html in the "find file name pattern" box. click on the html entry. under the "general" tab, look down at "application preference order". Mozilla should be listed there. click on it, then click the "move up" button 'til it's at the top of the list. click "apply". should Mozilla not be in the list, click the "add" button & browse to the Mozilla binary to add it. it's at /usr/bin/mozilla.

adamw Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Evolution is a GNOME app, so it uses the GNOME browser preferences. If you have GNOME installed, you can configure this via the GNOME control centre. If you don't, you may have to investigate the joy that is gconf-editor...
