Mm. Doesn't mention Galeon in there, %u or otherwise:
cat .kde/share/mimelnk/text/html.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Comment=HTML Page
Hidden=false
Icon=html
MimeType=text/html
Patterns=*.html;*.HTML;*.htm;*.HTM
Type=MimeType
X-KDE-AutoEmbed=true

Old? Have they released a successor to Woody without telling me? Nobody ever
tells me anything. Why do you all hate me?
Le's'ee... KDE 2.2.2 aaaaand Galeon 1.2.5 (2000-2002). The very latest!
More seriously - do those in the know tend to use testing? I'm a home user,
so not mission-critical, although I'd be upset if all my por^H^H^Hdata was
deleted.

Mmm. Interesting. Doesn't seem to float that way. I moved the old Galeon
thingy up (with my user area's copies of the Galeon.desktop at Exec=... %u),
ran kbuildsycoca, and... still broken. Moved the new galeon\ %u one back,
things work again. Edited the /var/lib/{kde,gnome}/.../Net/Galeon.desktop
files to add the %u to the Exec line, re-ran kbuildsycoca, moved it back up
again, and... no polenta. Have I erred?
Cheers,
Tim
