[gentoo-user] [OT] pdf wierdness

[Matthew R. Lee]

For reasons unknown my .pdf files will not open with kpdf or kghostview.
Fore example I get the following error message with kghostview:

Could not open /home/matt/Work/Pdfs/Not_processed/New/Armsby2006.pdf which has 
type application/x-kdeuser1. KGhostview can only load PostScript (.ps, .eps) 
and Portable Document Format (.pdf) files.

Now if I change the file type to .x and click on the file it will open in kpdf 
or kghostview.  I've checked the file associations, they all seem in order.
Anybody any idea what's up?

                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
How did you get one of those? I suspect that's the root of your problem. 
Delete this entry in file associations and the problem should go away
