Or, if you've gone the whole hog (like me), right-click an ISO in dolphin,
choose "properties" and on the general pane, click "file type options".
Here you can add / remove handlers and prioritize which one you would like

Dr Valdés, I'd really like to know more. Are you using a compositor; what
desktop environment? If I had had the positive experience you speak of, I

Definitely Nouveau. I tried (really hard) to stick to proper open-source

Most newer external storage devices come formatted with ntfs these days, so
