Is it possible that GNOME 2.8 (or Debian for that matter) did away with the "File Association" application found on the Applications -> Desktop Preferences menu?
Yes it did,Use "Open with other application" and type in the application you want to use.
It will be remembered for that file type afterwards. -- René Seindal (rene@seindal.dk) Seindal Consult
