Well, /usr/share/man contains the man files in
Section subdirectories;
e.g. /usr/share/man/man1 contains User Commands. Each file is a gzip'ed file, e.g.
alsamixer.1.gz. konqueror opens this by default with ark, which doesn't recognize
*.1
files, so opens them with what looks like khexedit. There is a mime type for man, but
it's for "Troff Document with Manpage Macros," not for man files.
The strange thing is that on my primary account (this one I'm emailing from),
konqueror
opens man:/(1) (the equivalent to /usr/share/man/man1) properly, not forwarding it to
another browser; so I don't think it's a mime issue. Very strange.

Hi Leslie,
worth checking the settings for default browser as well, in addition to the file
association that has already been
mentioned.
