Problem with xdg-open
My /etc/mailcap has this entry in it: text/html; /usr/bin/xdg-open %s ; copiousoutput But when I go to a link because of it, it ends up starting Konqueror. How do I tell xdg-open that this is *not* my preferred app and that I'd like it to use firefox instead? TIA -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana.

Actually, it's more complicated than that: * In KDE 3, the default browser was indeed the default handler for the file type, usually text/html. * In KDE 4, it defaults to that, but can be set separately under Default Components in System Settings. * In GNOME, there are separate Preferred Applications settings (like KDE 4's Default Components), the file associations are not used.
