Yes, that's clear. > With both nautilus 2.24 and g-v-m 2.24 the only place to configure them > is in the nautilus preferences. But even like this, it is not clear how an application is set as the preferred one in nautilus. I think I haven't explained the issue correctly, let's take an example again: For pictures, I like nautilus to open a folder when I connect my DSLR. The parameter defined in the nautilus preferences are : "open folder" (see screenshot #1) In the open nautilus folder, I can see a message: "open gThumb image viewer" (screenshot 2). However, I want nautilus to propose opening f-spot and NOT gThumb. How do I do that? I cannot find it documented anywhere, but have managed to find the following procedure: 1/ set f-spot as default action in the nautilus preferences and validate the choice 2/ set the option back to "open folder" 3/ nautilus proposes to open f-spot when a media containing pictures is inserted (screenshot #3) I think this can be very confusing for the users, as not intuitive at all, even more as not document (as far as I have been able to search). Hope this helps you understand the issue.
