[gentoo-user] links in thunderbird broken again...

2005-10-10 Thread Antoine

Hi,
I have the appropriate line 
(user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.http, 
/opt/firefox/firefox);) in my prefs.js but my links (open firefox when 
I click on a url) are broken again. Anyone else had this prob with 
TB1.0.6 and FF1.0.7?

Cheers
Antoine

Here is mine;
user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.http, /usr/bin/firefox);
user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.https, /usr/bin/firefox);

 Try something like this...

 $EDITOR ~/.thunderbird/default pref dir/prefs.js and add the following
 lines

 And add these lines

 user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.ftp, /opt/firefox/firefox);
 user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.http, /opt/firefox/firefox);
 user_pref(network.protocol-handler.app.https, /opt/firefox/firefox);

 Restart thunderbird and links in email should now open in firefox.

 I'm have approximately the same problem, with Thunderbird instead
 wanting to open links in mozilla-launcher. The problem is,
 mozilla-launcher has the audacity to fail to open *anything*.
 mozilla-laucher sits in /usr/libexec, giving the error unknown browser
 when I attempt to launch it.
 
 I tried editing prefs.js, but Thunderbird reverted prefs.js to its
 previous state when I next started it up.

This is odd-- I have been so happy this week because after a good year
of waiting, T-bird and Firefox finally interoperate seamlessly, with no
need for me to write scripts, edit prefs.js or anything of that nature.

What I wonder is:

1) do you have Thunderbird and Firefox set as the default email
client/browser in your desktop environment (if GNOME or KDE)?

2) what does mozilla-launcher itself say (what is the unknown browser
it's looking for)?

Mozilla-launcher is just a script, so open it up in a text editor and
look at it.

Hope this helps,
Holly

You might also check cfdisk - it presents, to me anyway, a better

While cfdisk can be used to reset your Thunderbird configuration to
default, I'd recommend a somewhat less extreme approach :-O

[gentoo-user] links in Thunderbird

2005-05-13 Thread Arran Fraser

I recently did my first-in-a-long-while emerge world.  Now, when I
click a link in Thunderbird nothing happens.  I'd like the link to be
opened in Firefox (of course).  I'm using KDE.

Any ideas?

Something similar here. I'm getting an error dialog saying:
"Epiphany appears to have crashed or been killed the last time it was
run."
And shortly after another one comes: "Epiphany can't be used now.
Mozilla initialization failed. Check your MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME
environmental variable."

Anybody knows what to do with it?

How exactly is that similar?

Maybe the way it's not working at all?!
