That's the main reason, but there are other minor ones...
Changing the file association only works to determine what browser launches
when you click on a link. The default browser that is called by a program
when it needs one is set by the environment variable BROWSER. Type env at a
prompt to see what it is currently set to. To set it temporarily to
something else, you can use the export command
export BROWSER=mozilla-firefox
This will change it to firefox until the next login. I am still looking for
the file to change to make it permanent system wide.
Sorry, didn't work. Still defaults to Konqueror. The only program I
can get to default to firefox is thunderbird (not surprisingly).
