Description Joseph Shraibman 2002-11-27 01:50:34 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826

Description of problem:
If xloadimage is installed, the xview command is used to view images, not xli as
in the lynx config file. You should also put in the config file that the
xloadimage package should be installed to install xview.
Comment 1 Joseph Shraibman 2002-11-27 02:08:48 UTC 
That is you should put a comment in the config flie that the
xloadimage package should be installed to install xview.
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2002-12-23 12:18:47 UTC 
Not sure I see what you mean.  Could you maybe attach a patch?

I can't get into bugzilla again, but the line in lynx.cfg that says:
                                                                                
#XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND:xli %s &
                                                                                
... should be
                                                                                
XLOADIMAGE_COMMAND:xview %s &
                                                                                
... I think, I'm not at that computer right now. Maybe when lynx is built
a command should be passed into the configure script that says the image
viewer should be xview instead of xli, I don't know.
                                                                                
Have you ever tried loading an image in lynx?  It won't work because it
tries to use xli and linux uses xview, not xli.

For me it uses eog by default.
