The problem is this: When I click onto a URL while in Thunderbird, no web browser comes up -- much different from my experience under SuSE 9.2, under which Firefox always came up. dj tuchler |

I recall this option being available under 1.0.5 but not under 1.0.7. The same is true of Thunderbird. When I tried to set up defaults under KDE, it didn't work, either. Apparently, they have to be KDE apps. Will I have to install and use Gnome to make this work? dj tuchler |
