gnome places menu [SOLVED]
Strange behaviour on my gnome desktop. Folders in the places menu are opened by audacious instead of nautilus.
I tested deleting all gnome configuration folders and reinstalling nautilus without luck.
Removing audacious does not default to nautilus either:
Could not open location 'file:///home/******'
There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location.
This only happens in the places menu. Elsewhere nautilus opens folders.

That's what you should do. I also had a problem of GNOME places menu opening folders with thunar.
The day Microsoft makes a product that doesn't suck, is the day they make a vacuum cleaner.

But if they tell you that I've lost my mind, maybe it's not gone just a little hard to find...

Re: gnome places menu [SOLVED]
Thanks kensai. I did
update-mime-database /usr/share/mimeafter commenting out
<alias type="x-directory/normal"/>in /usr/share/mime/packages/freedesktop.org.xml
Now gnome-open works again.
gvfs-open did not need this change.
