I fired up XFCE4 on Stable, went to the settings manager, and noted the following options: Default Applications => Internet, Web Browser. Currently set on "Debian Sensible Browser". I set it to firefox. XFCE Terminal Settings => nothing browser related. Alternatives => x-www-browser. I set it to firefox. That last one appears to be a GUI interface to the alternatives system, and can be installed with apt as galternatives. -dsr-
