Change Firefox File Manager

[Naatan]

Hi,

I've installed the Kde-desktop on Ubuntu and everything works fine, except that whenever I download something with Firefox it does everything with Nautilus rather than Konqueror or D3lpin..

Does anyone know how to change this?

Should only need to open System Settings | Default Applications | Web Browser and under Default Component check the In the following browser then browse to browser you want to use.

I also would like to know how to force firefox to use Dolphin to open downloaded files.

Firefox is already the default browser

When you download files and click "Open containing folder" , Nothing happens in Kubuntu.

Re: Change Firefox File Manager

actually, I don't care which file manager,

I just want a file manager that works in KDE to load up when I click open containing folder in firefox

Re: Change Firefox File Manager

ah i figured it out by visiting the gentoo wiki http://gentoo-wiki.com/Talk:HOWTO_In...refox_with_KDE

Basically I am using konquerer,

You make this work by typing

 about:config

into the address bar in firefox

you than right click to make a new String.

enter

network.protocol-handler.app.file

enter

konquerer

as the value if you want dolphin instead type dolphin

Tada... thanks guys for your help

to use the kde file dialog try KGtk => http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show...?content=36077

or to use the default file dialog from firefox, type about:config in the address bar, search for ui.allow_platform_file_picker and set it to false
