Hello to everybody.
I recently had to reinstall my Linux machine, and I switched to Ubuntu MATE 14.04 LTS. The syncing works like a charm, but the client is giving so, and I am experiencing some (not so minor) trouble: Caja SHOULD manage file links in the form “file:///…”, but they get managed by Chrome instead. For example, if I try to use the ‘Open Dropbox Folder’ command in Dropbox from the tray icon drop-down menu, this program launches a link in the form “file:///media/massimo/Dati/Cestone/My%20Dropbox/”, that in my system gets managed, instead by the default file manager Caja, by the web browser (I installed Chrome instead of the default Firefox).
The same happens when I have to copy&paste a path from the file browser to a terminal: in Gnome I could copy a file from the graphical file manager and paste it correctly in a terminal window, while with MATE I get a filename in the form ‘file:///…’, that I have to manually edit to get in the form acepted by the terminal. Not a terrifying issue, but it actually makes the overall experience definitly less smooth that what I got used to with the old Gnome 2.
Any hint?
Thank you very much
Max
