Folks, here is my slightly changed default reply to this FAQ on the evolution mailing list. Michael: Evolution as a Gnome application will only respect Gnome settings, regardless of what you change in KDE. karsten --- snipp --- I should write a perl script, that automagically answers this... ;-) Evolution 1.3.x and Gnome 2.2 desktop: launch 'gnome-control-center', goto: Advanced > Preferred Applications > Web Browser set 'Custom Web Browser' Command to: mozilla-remote.sh "%s" have the attached script in your path Common answer (Evo 1.2.x): That's a GNOME setting. For Gnome1 you can use the Gnome Control Center, for Gnome2 there is no GUI yet: Check your ~/.gnome/Gnome file. You need something like that: [URL Handlers] default-show=gnome-moz-remote --newwin "%s" If there are http-show or similar entries, change them, too. gnome-moz-remote %s will only open a new mozilla, when none running displays the URL in the current mozilla (old content overwritten) gnome-moz-remote --newwin %s will only open a new mozilla, when none running displays the URL in a new mozilla window I use the following default-show entry: default-show=/home/guenther/bin/mozilla-remote.sh "%s" With the attached mozilla-remote.sh script (must be executable) it acts like the --newwin option, but displays the new URL in a new *tab* if there is already a mozilla running. I don't lose the displayed URL and can even click multiple URLs and see them all in the same mozilla. If you have a ~/.gnome/gnome-moz-remote file, check it, rename it or plain delete it. You can change settings there too, although you won't need it. Hope that answers all your questions... --- snipp --- -- Davision - Atelier fuer Gestaltung / Internet / Multimedia UNIX / Linux Netzwerke und Schulungen - www.linux-campus.de Telefon 06151/17865 Fax 06151/178659
