Question #54487 on thunderbird in ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+question/54487
Jim Fuqua proposed the following answer: I had the same problem and found a solution. The custom preferred browser under System-Preferred Applications - Web Browser had Firefox-3.5 %u the same as the command in my desktop link. I think I got it by looking at the preferences in the desktop link to start with. I noticed that under Preferred applications the listing for Thunderbird had %s. When I changed the Firefox command to %s it worked properly. I don't understand why the desktop icon has a "command" of Firefox-3.5 %u and the preferred application listing only works with a command of Firefox-3.5 %s but at least it works that way on my Ubuntu machine. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
