Re: Unable to open magnet links with xdg-open
Check the defaults with
xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/magnet
you can edit .config/mimeapps.list if required, with entry like
x-scheme-handler/magnet=transmission.desktop
Re: Unable to open magnet links with xdg-open
What is qt-bittorrent?
try "xdg-open <magnet-link>" , if it opens fine, you need to troubleshoot chromium.
Re: Unable to open magnet links with xdg-open
You might want to re-examine the application's name. AFAIK it is "qbittorrent" and no other.

Re: Unable to open magnet links with xdg-open
@wolvieh,
If you are using
qtbittorrent
qbittorrent (and not transmission-qt) as c00ter suggested, you need to make appropriate changes to .config/mimeapps.list.
EDIT: spell correction

Plain old qbittorrent. No 't' after the 'q.' Spelling counts, or so the old lady told me in school.
