[opensuse] changing MIME types
Hello, My first attempt to get some help has not been answered, so I try again : - my application uses file which end in .Mod (that is normal in Oberon/Modula2) - openSuse insist this is an audio file and tells me so. - but this is MY system so I want to change this behaviour. I have been fooling around with /etc/mime.types but that did not help. Is there an application/tool that I can use? thank you for any help you can provide, Klaas Punt -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

In Konqueror, right click on your file, then in General tab click on the icon next to Type and modify "Application Preference Order" -- Bogdan Cristea software engineer Sytron Technologies Overseas www.sytron.ro -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
In suse 10.3, 11.0 / KDE 3 you can also go to start menu => configure desktop => kde components => file association. If you are using 11.0 / KDE 4, beware! There are programs that are using the kde 4 infrastructure while others are stilll using the kde 3 system. .. in that case you have to configure both the kde 4 and kde 3 parts.

I go to the KDE Control Center. Geeko > Configure Desktop (personal settings) > KDE Components > File Associations. I've done this for a few different types. -- kai www.filesite.org || www.4thedadz.com || www.perfectreign.com remember - a turn signal is a statement, not a request -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
