Well, I got nibbles installed fine but I wanted it to be the default RSS handler. So I edited the defaults list to change the RSS reader to nibbles.install. Clicking on a RSS logo of a webpage opens the feedhandler, but only gives me canola and the built-in RSS reader as subscription options.

Should I be adding "nibbles.desktop" instead? Any clues?

I've already asked the Canola guys to look into adding other feed readers to their list. I've not heard much for a little while though. Also, MicroB may be supporting something similar in the future.

Until then, the line in defaults.list should look like this:

application/hildon-news_reader=nibbles.desktop

I'm still trying to work out a way of doing this nicely, without needing root access.

Let me know if that didn't help,

I had that in there for a while and it didn't change the feedhandler action, but I'll revert to it and see what it does.

I'd like to see the output of adding a feed.

EDIT; going back into the defaults lists, I see that I actually never changed it back to nibbles.install. It's been nibbles.desktop the whole time.

Strange.

Is it working for everyone but me?

Hmm, that's a little strange. Can you post your defaults.list, please?

Ah, try running "update-desktop-database" as root.

Did that, no change.

Try changing it to hildon-nibbles.desktop and running update-desktop-database.

If that doesn't work, can you tell me what loads when you do click the RSS icon, please?

Ah, now we have the magic!!!

Thanks!

Edit:

Spoke too soon, I add feeds, they load... go back to Microb, add feed, first feed is missing... I'll look through the thread for answers.

Does it sound like bug 2305?
