[opensuse] My firefox tries to browse files using an mp3 editor.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, When I open the list of downloads in Firefox, and I right click on a file, and select "open containing folder", what it opens is "easytag", (an application to manage mp3 tags) instead of any file browser. This happened since I used easytag the other day, previously it worked correctly. I do not see where to change this back.

File a bug on the easytag maintainer. Apparently its desktop file suggests that and I don't think having x-directory/normal support for easytag makes much sense. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

True, it does that:
MimeType=x-directory/normal;inode/directory;audio/x-mp3;audio/x-mpeg;audio/mpeg;application/ogg;audio/x-vorbis+ogg;audio/x-flac;audio/x-musepack;audio/x-ape;
But it is a packman package, so it will have to be reported there. I'll have to remember how to do that. Meanwhile, I guess I'll have to edit that file myself. Hum! inode/directory, that's also dangerous! The default is "inode/directory=nautilus.desktop". Although this one has not been changed in my system, it stays on nautilus. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar)

I don't have Xfce but according to /var/cache/gio-2.0/xfce-defaults.list there should be a file /etc/xfce_defaults.conf where you can add your own configuration about which applications to prefer if there are more than one supporting a certain mime type. I'm also not sure if Gio on Xfce behaves as suggested in that local configuration.

Hum! That file is created automatically, somehow, same as the gnome one. What I need is forcing the system to recreate them, as I have edited the easytag.desktop file which is the master information source. Probably rebooting would do it.

grepping the contents of all the files in .mozilla/firefox/XXX.default/, I find not a single configuration that points to "easytag", except links pointing to the page <http://projects.gnome.org/easytag/>
How can I change this stupid behaviour?
Aww, come on! :-) . Hint: "This happened since I used easytag the other day, previously it worked correctly." :-) HOWEVER, have you tried right-clicking on an mp3 file using Dolphin, going to Properties and selecting the app with which to open an mp3 file?

No dolphin here. I use XFCE. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar)

Also, remember that I'm not trying to open mp3 files, but ANY file. I open a directory, in fact. See my other post. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar)

You are confusing the action. I don't click to open a file, I click on firefox to open the default file browser to open the _folder_ that contains any one of the downloaded files. Some are isos, some pdfs, html, etc. Instead of the expected action, which is opening the folder with Nautilus or Thunar, it opens instead easytag, which is not a file broweser, and pointed not at the download directory, but at root. I'm not clicking on an mp3 file, or pdf file, or whatever, to open the file. That is what you are thinking about. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar)

OK, got it. I thought that there could have been a relationship between the two.
