title: Unable to start Jupyter lab or Jupyter notebook in a browser
body: <p>I get the following log when starting Jupyter lab or Jupyter notebook-</p>
  
  <pre><code>[W 17:03:08.963 NotebookApp] No web browser found: could not locate runnable browser.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and Jupyter does not start a browser (or a tab in a browser).</p>
  
  <p>(I am using Linux - Manjaro i3 community edition)</p>
  
  <p>I have configured Jupyter to use google-chrome-stable by </p>
  
  <pre><code>jupyter notebook --generate-config
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and setting the following line in <code>~/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>c.NotebookApp.browser = '/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable' 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>(Yes I have uncommented the above line)</p>
  
  <p><code>/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable</code> and <code>google-chrome-stable</code> successfully launch chrome from the terminal.</p>
  
  <p>I have also tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>jupyter lab --browser=google-chrome-stable
  </code></pre>
  
  <pre><code>jupyter lab --browser google-chrome-stable
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>without success.</p>
  
  <p>Jupyter used to open in a browser when I had Pale Moon installed on my system, but now that I have removed it, I cannot seem to get this working. <code>google-chrome-stable</code> is my default browser now.</p>
  
  <p>The obvious workaround is to copy the localhost URL to a web browser but I am trying to avoid that.</p>
