Restoring Nautilus as the default “Open Containing Folder” in Firefox

Using the terminal:

gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache

Search for: x-directory/gnome-default-handler=

and make sure the whole line reads

x-directory/gnome-default-handler=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop

instead of:

x-directory/gnome-default-handler=Thunar-folder-handler.desktop
x-directory/gnome-default-handler=pcmanfm-folder-handler.desktop;
x-directory/gnome-default-handler=kde4-dolphin.desktop

"The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference."
