You need a shared-mime-info entry for the MIME type. You also need a .desktop 
file for the MIME type for KDE 3 (KDE 4 (>=3.90.1) uses shared-mime-info, but 
KDE 3 used its own older MIME type system).

You also need icons with the correct names (gnome-mime-application-x-xoj for 
GNOME, application-x-xoj for KDE 4, and any name specified in the MIME 
type .desktop file (I recommend just using application-x-xoj there to avoid yet 
another symlink) for KDE 3), which should be installed according to the icon 
theme spec.
