![]() ![]() depends on your perspective, I guess.) See the forum topic here for the details.īasically, setting up xdg-open's config via gconf-editor didn't do anything to resolve the issue, since as of Natty the file-open functionality is handled by gvfs-open, which doesn't use gconf settings. The answer is in fact a bug in deluge packaging (or, perhaps deluge is the same & everything else changed around it. The only work-around I have (which does work) is to rename /usr/bin/transmission-gtk and create my own /usr/bin/transmission-gtk: $ cat /usr/bin/transmission-gtkĭeluge else run into this, know of a bug, workaround, or.? running from the shell also opens transmission (not deluge): xdg-open "magnet:?xt=urn:bt.&tr= My current URL handlers are: $ gconftool -a /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/magnet.I uninstalled transmission, and then basically nothing happened when clicking on torrent/magnet links.Not using Firefox, so manually setting apps for mime-types or extensions doesn't work (that's not an option in chrome/chromium, AFAIK - you have to rely on the OS).But not many people seem to be running into this problem, so. The newer threads seem to suggest xdg-open is to blame. I found some old threads on this issue, and only a one or two newer ones.(And, there also doesn't seem to be a "default application" setting for BitTorrent client to replace transmission w/ deluge.) There doesn't seem to be a way to set deluge to be the default torrent client. Rather, now only transmission will automatically open torrents, magnet links, etc. of the form " magnet:?xt=urn.", are now the only problem. (Edit: currently ".torrent" files are not a problem, but magnet URL's, e.g. This is interesting in that Firefox immediately opens them with Transmission, and I've done 'Open URL' from Transmission with no issues using a pasted magnet link, but Chromium just isn't making the association, and doesn't give me any options anywhere (that I can find) to do so.After upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04 (natty) from 10.10, I can no longer open magnet (torrent) links in Chromium, and set deluge to automatically open and accept the URL. ![]() So I went back in and again tried to open a magnet link, clicked on it, hit Launch Application (and this time wasn't dumb enough to put 'remember' and once again, it opened a Chromium blank window - just didn't make the association with Transmission at all. It worked insofar as it no longer automatically associates Chromium with the magnet links and killed the 'remember my choice' part of it. ![]() Thanks, it was already set to false, but just deleting the line half worked. Note: if it still doesn't work, open this file again and simply delete the entire line with "magnet" (and nothing else)this will reset it. save file in same format it's already in (should not have file extension on end of filename)(not Local State.txt or anything else).Relaunch browser. If you find it make sure your browser is closed then open the file in a text editor and look for "protocols" and "magnet" and change "true" to "false" (this means ignore Magnet links = false)ĥ. Look in your home folder for a "hidden" file. ![]()
