I noticed, sometimes in this situation I get a dialog where I can
choose from applications, sometimes I get a regular file open
dialog and need to navigate the file system.<br>
I am sure someone more knowledgeable will know exactly why
sometimes one dialog and sometimes the other appears. <br>
I personally find the mime type management in ?ubuntu not overly
intuitive<br>

<div>I keep trying to open files/links for
torrents or software center links, etc
that I don't have a default application
for in Xubuntu and it brings up that
dialog box that says:<br>
</div>
"This link needs to be opened with an
application. Send to:<br>
</div>
Choose an Application"<br>
</div>
I hit choose and it opens up my downloads
folder..<br>
</div>
Shouldn't there be a list of applications or
something?<br>
</div>
I don't have to navigate to where the program is
installed in my filesystem do I?<br>
</div>
I sure hope not.<br>
<br>
</div>
Also is this the right list to be asking this again?<br>
</div>
Thanks!<br>
