We could and should fix that by manually specifying mime prefs in /usr/share/kde-settings/kde-profile/default/share/applications/mimeapps.list and possibly provide a defaults.list for legacy apps not supporting mimeapps.list (akin to fedora's/gnome's default /usr/share/applications/defaults.list). It's nice that kde "just works' and gets things right, but shoe-horning other toolkits is (and will be) more work. -- Rex -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

That sounds likely - I hadn't thought of FF overriding KDE settings. All that remains is to find the setting, which so far I haven't managed to do.

Something seems very wrong. that would likely be Firefox calling Evince and can be configured in Firefox Preferences or about:config, I forget which.

If I open an embedded pdf, that is, from a web link, I believe it is Evince that opens it - it's certainly not okular. I've checked SystemSettings, and on the embedded tab it tells me that they will be opened by okularpoppler. Something seems very wrong.

Yeah, it must be. I was surprised too.

Konqueror uses Adobe Reader rather than Okular...
Yesterday I installed Adobe Reader because I needed to fill out an interactive PDF form. Today when I view a PDF in Konqueror it is using Adobe Reader rather than Okular. I want Konqueror to use Okular, not Adobe Reader. If I open a PDF in Dolphin, it uses Okular. How do I set Konqueror to use Okular rather than Adobe Reader ?
