I have suse 9.1 professional and it seems whatever I try to open on the
Desktop I get message

Could not find mime type
octet-stream

I installed 9.1 about 3 weeks ago and have had no problems at all and I have
not changed anything as far as I am aware. The last application I installed
was TSE3 notedit sequencer about 10days ago but as I said everything was
working fine until today. Any ideas?
Regards.
