Now nothing happens: I get this error in the console: (evolution:8603): evolution-mail-WARNING **: gnome_url_show: The default action does not support this protocol. and then sometimes Evo just hangs there, sometimes Evo returns and issues 2 more messages:
Not sure, but IIRC another guy reported 'hangs' -- just because he had a wrong (nonexistent) default browser.
any ideas what might be wrong?
If you have Mozilla installed, please try the following: (if not, try to adjust) launch 'gnome-control-center', goto: Advanced > Preferred Applications > Web Browser set 'Custom Web Browser' Command to: gnome-moz-remote --newwin "%s" This will present you every link (clicked in a Gnome 2 app) in a new mozilla window. If you prefer tabs (instead of new windows) like me, change it similar like that: set 'Custom Web Browser' Command to: mozilla-remote.sh "%s" Have the attached script in your path (or change the command to have the whole path) and make the script executable.
I have no longer Galeon on the system instead I use Epiphany now. I set Epiphany as the default browser in control panel but that did not help
Sorry, don't know about that for Epiphany. And the script is "just in case"... ;-) Did you mean the above steps with control panel? Do you have any ~/.gnome/gnome-moz-remote file? ...guenther -- char *t="\10pse\0r\0dtu\0 ghno\x4e\xc8\x79\xf4\xab\x51\x8a\x10\xf4\xf4\xc4"; main(){ char h,m=h=*t++,*x=t+2*h,c,i,l=*x,s=0; for (i=0;i<l;i++){ i%8? c<<=1: (c=*++x); c&128 && (s+=h); if (!(h>>=1)||!t[s+h]){ putchar(t[s]);h=m;s=0; }}}
