Quanta View with Firefox not working

falcon56215 · 03-10-2007, 11:48 AM

I am using Quanta along with Firefox 2.0. I have firefox installed in /home/falcon56215/firefox, but when I select view with Firefox in Quanta, I get the following error:

/usr/share/apps/quanta/scripts/externalpreview.sh: line 18: firefox: command not found

I have looked through quanta's settings to see if I can find someplace to set up the path to the external viewers it uses, but I haven't had any luck. Can anyone help me with this one?

Many Thanks.

try to run firefox with your run dialog. If it fails, then figure out what command runs firefox, it probably can be, that firefox can be run with: mozilla-firefox, or bonecho

good luck!

When I uninstalled Firefox 1.5, it took my startup script out of /usr/bin. The solution was to make a link back to /home/falcon56215/firefox/firefox and place it in /usr/bin.

I knew it had to be something simple.

Thanks,
