I am running Firefox 15 on Ubuntu 12.04.
If I go to a website with a .deb link, Firefox downloads the file, then tries to open it with gedit. If I use Nautilus to open the .deb file, it runs it in either gdebi or Ubuntu Software Center (I've experimented with both).
Oddly, no matter what I've done I can't seem to get Firefox to believe that debs should not be opened by gedit.
Seen here, d checked on a live session though because it's an X Window System error maybe hardware is a factor.
Easy to see - open any .desktop or .desktop type file in gedit from a terminal (for Ex.
Is there any way or plug-in that supports opening pdf file directly in gedit from file browser?
gedit seems open everything inside it as a source file rather than recognize the software to open the file.
So What I mean is that instead of opening the file by going to the folder, I can read the file by double clicking it in the file browser.
I'm trying to setup Broadway but I'm having a few issues. First off, upon running GDK_BACKEND=broadway gedit& I get a response from the terminal saying [1] and then a PID.

Firefox determines which program to use to open a download based on the download's MIME type. More information on that can be found in Mozilla's online documentation.
It seems to me that when Firefox encounters a MIME type it has no configuration for, it prompts the user to open it in Gedit. Why Gedit? How can I change the default for unrecognised MIME types to gnome-open?
In File/Revert, what does revert do?
Somehow I opened two copies of Gedit while opening 3 files. One has two tabs for two files, the other has one tab for the third file. What would cause this to happen? I only want one copy of gedit open with all 3 files in that one copy with 3 tabs for the 3 files.
