Sudrien Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 I'm using fluxbox (rpm from the contribs) for a wm, and konqueror for all my file work. I've compiled MPlayer, and want my mpeg movies to open with it by default. I go through kcontrol and set the new association, changing it from xmms. THe file opens with mplayer. I reboot and try again, and xmms pops up. where is this association stored that I'm not getting to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesea Posted January 23, 2003 Report Share Posted January 23, 2003 i'd try changing the associations through the settings menu, although i think its exactly the same as if you went through kcontrol. also, try saving your view profile. maybe going in kde and change the associations that way? i'm just spitting out ideas here. if using konqueror isn't a must, i suggest using a smaller, less resources hungry file manager like rox filer or endeavour2 (especially since you're using fluxbox) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sudrien Posted January 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 After adding a menu entry for mplayer, associations started holding (so far) But ROX-filer looks interesting. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
