When I click on open nothing happens. I'm assuming this is an association problem somehwere in gnome. If you are using Gnome 2.8+ it does. You need to right-click and choose properties, the choose the Open With tab. It will say to pick a program to open foo.pdf and others of type .pdf Since you are using sylpheed though, I'm not sure whether it is using Gnome's file associations (or, if it is, whether it's using the new fd.o standard). You may need to pose it as a sylphed associations question. -Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
