no. no changes to proffered applications. not even the keys where changed it all comes out from a clean install of ubuntu natty from scratch (while I keep the home folder I always move all files and folders starting with . and never restore gnome ones)

In my case for firefox it's sent a big number with no meaning (always the same too), for evolution it's sent an %U. This thing makes both misbehave: firefox opens a weird page with this number (http://number/) and evolution never opens the windows if it's not already open. As a temporary solution I've worked around this by putting a wrapper script which removes these "arguments": #/bin/sh #for args #do #echo $args >> /tmp/out #done if [ "$1" = "%U" ]; then /usr/bin/evolution2 else /usr/bin/evolution2 $@ fi and #!/bin/sh set -e if [ "$1" = "3788462439" ]; then firefox exit fi # Firefox launcher containing a Profile migration helper for on top of the firefox init script already there. Obviously this isn't a correct solution. So why the keyboard shortcut launcher is sending arguments at all? it should allow to configure them or not set them at all. This is a clean natty install with just firefox config folder copied from the previous install and evolution restored by using the backup functionality but i don't think this matters as the problem is these arguments which have no meaning to be there and shouldn't be there at all (so not firefox 373.... or evolution %U but just firefox and evolution!)
