== How to set default browser in GNOME? ==
 *In Debian you set the default browser using '''update-alternatives --config x-www-browser''' but GNOME has its own setting, so changing default browser in Debian doesn't guarantee that the default browser is changed in GNOME. To do that you need to:

__ Change default browser in debian __
{{{
update-alternatives --config x-www-browser

There are 4 alternatives which provide `x-www-browser'.

  Selection    Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
 +        1    /usr/bin/epiphany
*         2    /usr/bin/iceweasel
          3    /usr/bin/iceape
          4    /usr/bin/epiphany-gecko
}}}

__ Change GNOME setting by going to '''System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications''' __
or running this in a command line:
{{{
gnome-default-applications-properties
}}}
Change the web browser from custom to '''iceweasel''' for example.
