I have ASP Linux 9.0 (a derivative of RH 9.0), Evo 1.2.3. I'd like to make Konqueror my default browser. In Gnome's system options it is already set as such - but Evo still starts Mozilla. Starting 'gnomecc' did not help - the program is simply not found. I know I should go over to 1.4 someday, but can the problem be solved in 1.2.3 somehow?
As you mentioned, you probably will upgrade, here are the settings for
Evolution 1.2.x and 1.4.x versions.
To set Konqueror as default browser, just replace 'gnome-moz-remote'
with 'konqueror' and adjust the parameters if needed or change the
attached script. "%s" is the given URL.

Evolution 1.4 / Gnome 2.x
-------------------------
Open the "Gnome Control Center" > Preferred Applications > Web Browser
or simply run:
# gnome-default-applications-properties
check 'Custom Web Browser'
Command: gnome-moz-remote --newwin "%s"
This will present you every link (clicked in a Gnome 2 app) in a new
mozilla window. If you prefer tabs (instead of new windows) like me,
change it similar like that:
Command: mozilla-remote.sh "%s"
Have the attached script in your path (or change the command to have the
whole path) and make the script executable.
Evolution 1.2 / Gnome 1.4
-------------------------
Check your ~/.gnome/Gnome file. You need something like that:
[URL Handlers]
default-show=gnome-moz-remote --newwin "%s"
If there are http-show or similar entries, change them, too.
gnome-moz-remote %s
will only open a new mozilla, when none running
displays the URL in the current mozilla (old content overwritten)
gnome-moz-remote --newwin %s
will only open a new mozilla, when none running
displays the URL in a new mozilla window
I use the following default-show entry:
default-show=/home/guenther/bin/mozilla-remote.sh "%s"
With the attached mozilla-remote.sh script (must be executable) it acts
like the --newwin option, but displays the new URL in a new *tab* if
there is already a mozilla running.
I don't lose the displayed URL and can even click multiple URLs and see
them all in the same mozilla.
If you have a ~/.gnome/gnome-moz-remote file, check it, rename it or
plain delete it. You can change settings there too, although you won't
need it.
