Customize Default Applications :

By default, when you click on Toolchest --> Internet --> Open Web browser, it opens Firefox. But if you don't have Firefox installed, nothing will happen. You can change this by editing your desktopenv script.

1. in your home directory, Nedit .maxxdesktop/desktopenv

You'll see:

export WEBBROWSER='which firefox'

Change this 'which opera' or 'which seamonkey'; whatever browser you use.

2. Save and close

3. Make sure the file has execution mask

chmod a+x .maxxdesktop/desktopenv.

Then logout and login.

You do not have to be root to do this!

4. Also, in this file is the default editor, imageviewer and pdfviewer. You can season these to taste as well.
