"x-directory/gnome-default-handler" is not a mimetype, grep to /usr/share/mime by example for it, it's not listed, is there any reason to use it for the MimeType line?
The default assignations are set this way with GNOME: $ grep directory /etc/gnome/defaults.list inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop x-directory/normal=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop We could list "x-directory/gnome-default-handler" from it too, but since that's not a public mimetype that would not be optimal neither nautilus has a "--no-desktop" and a gconf key to not take over the desktop too ... -- Gnome's Places menu starts Konqueror instead of Nautilus https://launchpad.net/bugs/35997 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
