I just can't select open/open with or edit/edit whit I think I need to an image editor like gimp to the config somewhere if I want an external launch.

I've observed this same issue on my computer as well. I guess the only solution for now is to wait for Lotus Notes 8.0 :)

Thanks for the printer fix, notes is almost completely functional for me now. Are you able to view image attachments of any type other than .png? I’m sure it is some type of MIME problem but I don’t know where to fix it.

Looks like this comment thing doesn't like angle brackets... Anyhow there was supposed to be an example in there... find your printer definition Printer LaserJet-4350 change it to DefaultPrinter LaserJet-4350 just pretend there's angle brackets around those! Hmm… Looks like this comment thing doesn’t like angle brackets… Anyhow there was supposed to be an example in there…

find your printer definition

Printer LaserJet-4350

change it to

DefaultPrinter LaserJet-4350

just pretend there’s angle brackets around those!

The issue is apparently that the way Ubuntu sets up CUPS the 'Default Printer' is not specified in the manner that Notes expects. If you don't have a 'Default Printer' in your printers.conf file Notes blows up. in /etc/cups/printers.conf: find your printer definition... add the word 'Default' to restart CUPS, and voila, working Notes!
