This is a bit of a long shot, but you could try moving your firefox profile out of the way ( close firefox first ): mv .mozilla/firefox .mozilla/firefox_BAK and then starting firefox and seeing if that fixes things. If not, move the profile back: mv .mozilla/firefox_BAK .mozilla/firefox I've repeatedly had this type of problem with firefox / thunderbird. They're both horrible at integrating with the desktop with respect to file-type associations. I switched from thunderbird to evolution because of this. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au _______________________________________________ Evince-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evince-list
