How do I change the browser that gnome terminal opens links with?

I'd like gnome-terminal to open links with the Chrome browser, but it insists on opening them with Firefox.

I've followed both pieces of advice found here without any success:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/gnome-terminal-default-browser-332934/

My OS is Ubuntu 10.04.

Solution 1:

You should choose the default browser: Chromium Web Browser in your case.

Go to System --> Administration --> Preferred Applications

Solution 2:

I had the same problem in Ubuntu 13.04, couldn't find an answer online (this question is the closest I found), and eventually fixed the problem by running:

gnome-control-center info

and using the 'default applications' in there to select my browser.
