You need to open Nautilis ( if you don't have it, as I do coz I use KDE, install it :-( ) Then over a pdf file do right clik and select properties. There is an icon for the actions to do with that type an let you select the applications for it. I have to do the same for .doc files on Fedora 9. Can't find a short cut.
