Recently i had my x86_64 fixed up tip-top shape.... now a little problem is irritating me, quite alot.
It all started with me wanting Gdesklets to work (my brother has normal 32 and it looks good) so
i said , hey i'll give it a go. Unfortunately they didn't work so after some extensive research and
fidling i came across a .deb file compiled by a user.
I decided to give it a go, and it installed perfectly, although to my demise i noticed that while
Gdesklets finally worked...they system stopped recognizing all my files....jpegs....avi's....
even my shortcuts on desktop became senseless files with a .destkop extension attached to
the file name. I purged the install but i cant figure out how to get things back to how they
originally were....
It only became a problem when I wanted to change my Desktop background from a KTM
Superduke 990 photo to a KTM prototype photo :PP
Anyway if you read this all the way, good job ! It's such a boring problem and im out of
ideas.
P.S. - What i meant to tell you is that now i have to manually open each file with the **desired** app. that is capable of opening the file (i.e. an .avi file with VLC)
Thank You !!!
