Firefox doesn't use the KDE MIME type association registry but its own.
and is there any way to change that ?
funny thing is, i also use KDE at work and firefox runs just fine here (i don't know if it really uses the KDE MIME type associations, but i do get several meaningful options in the "open with"-menu).
seems to me i made some kind of mistake when installing either KDE or firefox, i just don't have a clue what it is (i didn't change anything on purpose, and as mentioned above, when i use GNOME everything is fine).
