The developer was one of the original Sidux crew. Among other things there is an option to dump the gtk file handlers for Mozilla stuff (iceweasel is rebranded mozilla) Make sure kdm-trinity is closed </etc/init.d/kdm-trinity stop> before you run it and restart it manually from console </etc/init.d/kdm-trinity start> , smxi will not automatically detect Trinity and must run with X closed Regards, David
