The simple solution would be running this as user: gconftool-2 --type=string -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/command \ "firefox %s" gconftool-2 --type=string -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/https/command \ "firefox %s"
I cannot do this from the Firefox package though.
Anyone has an idea where to document that so that people actually can find it?
One thing that I have found lacking is a useful *reliable* wiki for openSuSE. I know it has one -- don't get me wrong, this isn't bashing, but it is really hit or miss as to whether you will find anything useful there for any given package or issue. I used to think wikis were pretty much useless -- for that reason (not just suse's). However, of all the distros I've used, Arch has done their wiki right. For virtually every package, there is a current *reliable* wiki with fairly complete information from package install, configuration and current issues. There, you are expected to consult the wiki first before posting to the list, because the devs can be reasonably sure the question has already been answered and that the answer is correct. The package maintainers are responsible for the wiki information and the community fills in the blanks. It works really well. openSuSE does many, many things right, but one area where it could be improved is having a *reliable* wiki that the community can refer to and be reasonably sure that any current issue has already been addressed there by the packager. Also, of all the wikis I have worked with, mediawiki is the only way to go. Foswiki, etc. are usable, but they are such a PITA for the community to contribute to from a formatting standpoint, that they usually don't get used. http://en.opensuse.org/Firefox leaves quite a bit of room for improvement. No flames, this isn't a slam, it is just a recognition that issues like the Thunderbird/Firefox link problem are a perfect candidate for wiki use, and if we built the content and confidence in the opensuse wiki, then the community would know where to go to get distro specific answers to questions like these :) -- David C.
