mailto URI in evince
by John Obbele 26 Nov '10

26 Nov '10

Hi everyones ! I'm playing with \LaTeX and PDF files. I am generating some documents with URI of this kind "mailto:john@doe.net", but when clicking on those hyperlinks from Evince, I get the error message: """ Unable to open external link: Failed to execute child process "evolution" (No such file or directory) """ Oki, so I did not install evolution on my XFCE spin, and I assume my MIME database is correctly set since typing `xdg-email mailto:john@doe.net` opens claws-mail (/my/ currently preferred MUA). Anyone has an idea on how to let evince know that I'd rather use claws-mail thant evolution ? regards, /John

Missing icons in Fedora 14 Xfce
by Christoph Wickert 18 Nov '10

18 Nov '10

Hello world, as you may already have noticed there are a lot of missing icons in the Xfce desktop on Fedora 14. The reason is that we are using gnome-icon-theme by default and it switched to the 'new' XDG icon naming spec [1] a while back. In Fedora 13 GNOME had a lot of missing icons too and therefor the icon theme included a lot of symlinks for backwards compatibility. These were now removed. We feel that following the XDG naming spec is the only way to go, otherwise you cannot choose your icon theme freely but are stuck with the outdated xfce4-icon-theme (no update since Xfce 4.4.something). In order to move to the new icon spec we need your help. Please help us to finding missing icons. So far we have identified: * Thunar and xfce4-places-plugin lack the 'Trash' icons, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=647734 An update is available at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/Thunar-1.0.2-4.fc14 * thunar-volman, both in the menu ('Removable Drives and Media') and the preferences dialog. Update at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/thunar-volman-0.3.80-5.fc14 * xfce4-panel in the "Add new launcher" dialog * Thunar: * Main menu -> Preferences -> File manager * Thunar's Copy/Move progress dialog * Lots of mime types missing * xfdesktop: Left click on an image -> "Set as wallpaper" Please report any missing icons you spot in F14 Xfce. Use the mailing lists or Bugzilla at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=650504 Sorry for the inconvenience, Christoph [1] http://standards.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/icon-naming-spec-latest.h…
