[Linux] Minion does not properly use default browser

First off, some introductions:

Code:
$ uname -a
Linux saya 2.6.34-gentoo-r12 #2 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 21 16:16:46 PDT 2010 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 945 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
Code:
$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_22"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_22-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.1-b03, mixed mode)
Minion version 2.3.2.

When clicking "More info..." in the context menu of any addon in Minion, Minion always launches firefox (on my system). My desktop browser preference in Gnome and elsewhere is set to chromium.

My feeling is that Minion should launch URLs with the desktop environment's preferred browser.

Alternatively, if there is a workaround or preference where this can be set, I'd be interested in knowing how I can manually add it to my config file, since the Options menu does not work for me.

Thanks!
