Summary: webbrowser.open() fails on Linux

Initial Comment:
webbrowser.open( "http://www.python.org" ) just launches 
the browser, but without the URL.  In other words, the 
default ("home") page of the browser opens, rather than the 
URL specified in the call.

This fails on Linux.  Function works on Win32.

I'm using Python 2.2.1, Tk/Tcl 8.4b2, Linux 2.4.9.

Web browser is Mozilla 1.0RC3.
