      Can anyone tell me how to start the browser from the command line? I've tried xdg-open, but got command not found message. Thanks in advance for your advice.

        @dtarrant you could use ubuntu-app-launch webbrowser-app. See also ubuntu-app-launch-appids if you want to launch other apps from the terminal.
