I know it is a poor (not logical design), but here is how it works. Navigate to any PDF file with firefox and click on the file. You will see window pop-up as firefox doesn't know what to do with it. Beside "Open with" is empty selection, click on that empty icon, you will see: "other" --> click on it. Another window will pop-up, under File Name: type: /usr/kde/3.4/bin/kpdf or complete path to whatever application you want to use --> click OPEN I will return you to previous window; select "Do this automatically..." It will enter this setting in Download section in Setting Preferences. -- #Joseph -- [email protected] mailing list
