Opening Links from GAIM

Post by rhinst »

Hey all,

I'm using Firebird 0.7 in Fedora Linux. The problem I'm experiencing occurs when I already have a Firebird window open. I can open a link from an e-mail in Ximian Evolution and it will utilize the existing Firebird instance just fine. When I try to click on a link in a GAIM window, however, it brings up that little window for me to select my user profile (since my default is already in use).

Anyone know what causes this and how to fix?

Thanks,
Rob Hinst <rob@hinst.net>

This is how I have mine set up in GAIM. Under the manual part I have: MozillaFirebird -remote 'openURL(%s,new-tab)' and have Open new window, unchecked. See if that works for you.
