After a two-week holiday I've just updated my server. I have a message from kcontrol - "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream". A .png thumbnail on the desktop isn't displaying, but apart from that I don't have much of a clue what has happened. Nothing seems to appear in messages. Any help, please?
Application/octet-stream is a generic MIME type, and does not associate with any particular program. Most of these I get are attachments from broken Mail programs. Save it to disk and open with the graphics program of your choice, xv, gimp, etc.
