GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 147244
Both radio button selections are visually grayed out
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Fresh install on Gnome 2.6 on Gentoo Linux 1. In the Gnome DE, goto Applications->Desktop Preferences->Advanced-> Preferred Applications 2. Select Custom for both Web Browser and Mail Reader and enter something appropriate. In my case, firefox %s and thunderbird %s respectively 3. Hit Close 4. Go back to preferred applications. Both the Web Browser and Mail Reader tabs have all selections grayed out. You can select one and it will now look selected. If you close and come back, both selections look grayed out again. The other two tabs do not have this problem. Under "File Types and programs", it looks as though the items under Internet Services change correctly in lock step with what is set in Preferred Applications. It just visually the Preferred Applications do not reflect what is selected. Running gnome-panel-2.6.1 and gtk+-2.4.3-r1 -A
This is a known issue, I'm pretty sure it's a duplicate but I can't find it's original.

Excellent, the patch works fine. I applied to my Gentoo box with just minor changes to the diff headers to make it work with Gentoo's epatch/ebuild system. Just noticed however that while the preferred apps dialog updates the http protocol handler, it does not update the https handler. Guess I should go look first before I file a bug report. Thanks for the quick fix!
Please, can you reopen the bug? I need confirmation of the maintainers to commmit to cvs. About the http and https, see bug #123487. Thanks
Done
Adding the PATCH keyword
