Ubuntu Linux (6.06 LTS):

I have Firefox installed as well as Epiphany, and Firefox will not open when opening HTML and bookmark files. I try to open an HTML file off of my desktop, and it opens Epiphany, even after changing the default browser to Firefox.

Help!

Help!

right click file -> properties -> open with -> select firefox (if its not there click add and find it)

also check out the preferred applications option in desktop -> preferences menu.

dunno why you want to change tho epiphany is faster, less memory intensive and fits in with gnome better :P

Thank you, and thanks for the tip about Epiphany :)
