Re: [Evolution] setting default browser

[jm <jm5379 sbcglobal net>]

a variation on this...
i have the same question, but have chosen (for hardware constraint
reasons) to use only blackbox and not load any more of the kde/gnome
desktops than absolutely necessary, so i don't have those GUIs to go
through; which file(s) do i need to modify to change the default browser
that evolution uses for links?

i do have some of gnome installed (enough for evolution,
gnumeric and galeon basically) but not the full install.  evolution
appears to be looking at the system $BROWSER variable for its selection
of browsers, i just haven't found where the original definition of
$BROWSER is yet.

i've changed /etc/X11/Xsession to BROWSER=`which galeon 2> /dev/null`
after all prior assignments, replacing whatever may have been assigned
(w/o actually removing/commenting out the supplied code) - to no avail.

i added the same assignment in my .bash_profile - to no avail.

logged out and back in after each change.

where do i need to look at the file level, please?

thanks,
joe
