"Open With" not working?

Post by Leafcutter Ant »

Hi, I'd like open *.java files with gedit instead of the default OpenOffice that Linux Mint 9 suggests. I used "Open with Other Application", selected gedit, and checked "Remember this application for...", but the next time I try to open the file, OpenOffice is still the default. I also right clicked on the file and went to Properties > Open With, and gedit is indeed checked.

My system is Pentium 4 with 1.5 GB RAM. Any ideas?
