<p>I have three .desktop files specifying data files by MimeType. The MimeTypes were registred with <em>xdg-mime install</em><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I've verified the xdg-mime type via <em>xdg-mime query filetype [filename]</em> and thunar correctly shows the <em>Name</em> from the <em>[Desktop Entry]</em> section of the .desktop files, and uses the <em>Exec</em> specified for each.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>However, only one file type's Icon is used by Thunar, the other two are displayed with the icon for "plain text editor."<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The only difference I can find the system level mimetype. The one that works is:<br>
</p>
<div> text/plain; charset=us-ascii</div>
<div>The ones that don't work are </div>
<div>application/x-dbt; charset=binary and application/octet-stream; charset=binary<br>
<br>
</div>
<p>Any suggestions for fixing or debugging the issue?<br>
</p>
