Hi, I went to KControl as requested and listed under octect-stream is Description "Unknown" Application Preference Order "none" I then ran Kate to see if all is well and it opened just fine. I run KDE as my desktop and I have not encountered your problem yet. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Regards, Bill W.
