Hi,

I'm using Lxde with Debian Jessie.

I installed Wine and now whenever I try to open an image (png, gif etc.)
the system use Internet Explorer with Wineto open the image.

How to reconfigure LXDE to use eog or gpicview as default image viewer?

Thanks,
Markos

Have you tried searching the Internet? I typed

file extension associations lxde

in my browser's search engine and got results that look promising.
I don't use lxde myself, so I can't verify if it works.

P.S. I apologize for the broken thread. My e-mail client does not appear to
provide a way to set the "In-reply-to" header, and I've already deleted your
original e-mail.
