| Just installed etch with kde and added ice dove. If I click on a www
link in an email from ice dove it opens konqueror, not ice weasel.
I clicked the box in ice weasel to make it check on startup to see
if it is the default browser, this doesn't help. How can I make
ice weasel be the default browser?

Try in a root console: "update-alternatives --config x-www-browser" (no
quotes). Then set your default browser from there. What you set here will
become the default browser system-wide.

In a console: man update-alternatives
