I'm having a problem with my file associations - I can't seem to get them changed. I want to default to a different MP3 player and I've changed all the associations I can find yet it still pulls up the original player. I've even gone as far as rebooting to see if that will do it and it doesn't work.

Do I need to change these as Root?

Not as root. If you're under Gnome, did you hit go through "HatIcon->Preferences->File types and programs"? That's where most of them are. Of course, Mozilla/Firefox have its own set under "Edit->Navigator->Helper Apps"

Yep, that's basically how I did it (My system got messed up when I upgraded Ximian so I go through System-Personal Settings-File Associations) but it's the same basic place. I make the changes and nada.


Anyplace deeper I can look (i.e. go right into the data file with VI and search and change)?
