I've been told that you can change the application to be used via: "right click on a mp3 in nautilus, properties, open with...". also, as it may make sense to have gnome to actually provide some list of defaults applications (I think KDE does this, giving priority by default to kde apps), I'm reassigning this bug to gnome (as agreed on IRC). you may write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and give your further opinios there. thanks to Sebastien Bacher for his assistance on IRC. -- Adeodato Simó EM: asp16 [ykwim] alu.ua.es | PK: DA6AE621 Listening to: Elton John - Recover your soul When you don't know what to do, walk fast and look worried.

IMVHO, if you are using a GNOME file manager, it's very probable that the problem is in it, not in KDE. -- Alex (a.k.a. suy) - GPG ID 0x0B8B0BC2 http://darkshines.net/ - Jabber ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#282281: kde: KDE applications take over Gnome file types
Package: kde Version: 5:42 Severity: normal Installing the KDE desktop packages after having installed the Gnome desktop (and possibly running KDE once) causes KDE to take over lots of mime types from Gnome even when running Gnome. For example, MP3's are now played with noatun. Also, Nautilus keeps crashing when trying to view folders with multimedia content, which may be due to Nautilus trying to invoke KDE applications. It seems to me that something is seriously broken with the KDE packaging for Debian. Installing KDE packages or running the KDE desktop should not make the Gnome desktop less usable. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages kde depends on: ii kde-amusements5:42 The K Desktop Environment (Games a ii kde-core 5:42 The K Desktop Environment (Core) ii kdeaddons 4:3.3.1-1 add-on plugins and applets provide ii kdeadmin 4:3.3.1-1 KDE Administration tools metapacka ii kdeartwork4:3.3.1-1 themes, styles and more from the o ii kdegraphics 4:3.3.1-1 KDE Graphics metapackage ii kdemultimedia 4:3.3.1-1 KDE Multimedia metapackage ii kdenetwork4:3.3.1-2 KDE Network metapackage ii kdepim4:3.3.1-1 KDE Personal Information Managemen ii kdeutils 4:3.3.1-1 KDE Utilities metapackage ii kdewebdev 1:3.3.1-1 web development apps from the offi -- no debconf information
