Re: Gnome opens dolphin[SOLVED]

Raccoon1400, in /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache change this line

inode/directory=kde4-dolphin.desktop;kde4-kfmclient_dir.desktop;Thunar-folder-handler.desktop;nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;

to this

inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;kde4-dolphin.desktop;kde4-kfmclient_dir.desktop;Thunar-folder-handler.desktop;

and nautilus will open directories. whichever application is first in the line will be the default to open directories.

in /usr/share/applications append

"OnlyShowIn=KDE;" or "NotShowIn=Gnome;"

to dolphin.desktop and other KDE applications

Okay. Now it's reverted back to dolphin. The war isn't over yet.

Re: Gnome opens dolphin[SOLVED]

Had the same problem. I believe installing AUR package gnome-defaults-list from http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23170 will help.
