I tried to make the "Component Chooser" pass the %u parameter to firefox, but it wouldn't behave. So I tried making a simple bash-script that would start firefox with the %u, but Component Chooser didn't like that much either. Then I tried to alter the link in the KDE Menu, and make that pass the %u, and trick the component chooser to use that link. I even tried to make a bash script use the -remote command to pass firefox an URL. It worked, but i couldn't get the new-tab attribute to qork prope...
Do you know how I can fix this? I'm a bit new to this system (and linux in general). I'm running a Mandrake/KDE kombo through this live cd distribution: http://www.pclinuxonline.com/ Thanks!
Every now and then I get links sent to me through Kopete (and Kmail). I would like to just click them and have Firefox kick in and bring me there. Instead it seems, for reasons unimaginable to me, that it downloads the page to a local cache and then lets me view it: file:///tmp/kdecache-user/krun/4890.0.article.pl Is there anything I can to stop this nonsence and get KDE or Kopete to handle URL's properly systemwide? (please dont tell me to use konqueror for surfing)
