You can try installing gnome-control-center but it looks like it'll pull 
in a lot of GNOME in so doing. I believe there is another way of doing 
this through gconf (a sort of Windows-like registry for GNOME but that 
doesn't require GNOME) but I've never been able to figure it out.


  

I have an instruction on in my sites faq on howto set the preferred browser with the gconf command line tool. Take alook at: http://www.jwsdot.com/debian/faq.html#q9 -> 2nd solution.

Thus you won't need the whole control center installed.
