I have the solution to this problem: Change the Exec-line in the file .local/share/applications/chromium- browser.desktop to
Exec=chromium-browser %u (Add the %u) After that every thing is working as it should. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1226618 Title: Thunderbird or ubuntu-bug can't open a browser page Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This seems to be a recent regression after the update to chromium 29. I can't have thunderbird open links with chromium.. thunderbird=17.0.8+build1-0ubuntu1 chromium-browser=29.0.1547.65-0ubuntu3 (I think that's chad test build still) In System > Default Apps, chromium is set as the default browser and appears as "New tab" with the chromium logo, if that has any importance. Incidentally, while trying to file the bug, ubuntu-bug could just open a window but not have it open on the launchpad bug link.
