I've installed (and re-installed) GNOME and Nautilus on my FreeBSD
4.5-STABLE system, yet I can't seem to get nautilus to display HTML
files or otherwise handle HTTP URLs. Every time I try to display a HTML
file in the file manager, or click on a link in the News sidebar, for
example, nautilus will pop up a dialogue saying the Web view could not
be created. The only way I can display the content is explicitly to
open with one of the other provided alternatives e.g., "Open with
Netscape..."
I built GNOME from /usr/ports/x11/gnome (via a vanilla "make install"),
and rebuilt it just today after updating my ports via cvsup. But, I get
the same thing. Has anyone else had this problem, or is everyone else
happily displaying HTML within nautilus?
I note that, by default, nautilus is built with an embedded mozilla.
The odd thing is that I subsequently built the full mozilla, and *it*
works without problems...
Cheers,
Paul.
