I agree with you. That is what should happen. But for some reason it's not. I right-click, select Open With.., Other choose my app from the Debian menu (in this case Debian | Apps | Viewers | MPlayer). I select Remember Application Association and it says Updating Configuration.. and then opens the file in MPlayer. The next time I left click on that file, kaboodle opens again. I don't know if I have a setting wrong or its a permissions issue somewhere, but the association is not staying. I'm running Sarge with packages last updated 9/1.
