Well, I found this somewhat old post: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/susenovell-60/error-could-not-find-mime-type-applicationoctet-stream-529525/ That said, I looked at the location described and I don't even have the file that they are saying to edit. Is it possible that you have this file and it is no longer needed after the update? Just a thought. Dale :-) :-)
