Since I uptated to kde 3.5 the app which was managing file association in kde for specifics firefox downloads "disappeared".

Ex: If I wanted to open a .m3u stream, I just had to click on the link in firefox and it was put into amarok.
Now, if I want to do the same: the app is no longer found, and if I set amarok as default app, a second session of amarok open...

Could anybody tell me how to find back this app ?

Thanks.

Create a shell script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
kfmclient exec $1

Place it somewhere and make it executable. Then select it as the program to open with...
Opera simple accept the kfmclient exec command :roll:
