I had the same problem on Intrepid with Opera: Firefox was configured as default in "preferred applications", but Opera ended up as "sensible-browser" via "x-www-browser". Thom May's fix from above resolved this. (Thanks!)

To me, the "right" place to set the default browser on Ubuntu seems to be via "preferred applications". And, as has been pointed out previously, when the two settings get out of sync things can become really confusing. -- sensible-browser starts mozilla instead of preferred webbrowser https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9261 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
