is "Open With'. It will allow you to choose the default program to use
to open the file.
You're THE man! =) Setting file associations this way did the trick -- it even allowed me to fix the same problem with JNLP (Java Webstart) files, which I could not associate to javaws.
I'll file this upstream as a GNOME bug because the other method (through the "open with" popup menu option) should work the same way AFAICS.
Thks for the help =) (and for solving this mistery -- I knew there had to be a way to do this on GNOME 2.30 ;-))
