Hi,
In 9.3, I could double-click on files in the nautilus file viewer,
and most common files would open in a suitable application.
With a clean test account on a 9.4.5 beta machine, double-clicking *.doc
or *.pdf files gives me an error dialog. For a *.pdf file:
[ ] Can't display location x
-----------------------------------------
(-) Couldn't display "/tmp/v20no5p4r.pdf"
[ OK ]
If I menu-click and choose "open with other application", I can type
"acroread" into the text box, and acroread successfully reads the file.
I haven't done any deeper debugging.
Thanks,
Jacob Morzinski jmorzins@mit.edu
