Since upgrading to fc5 firefox won't show pdf docs. I cansave the doc and open it in acroread, evince, etc.


When firefox tries to to show a pdf file I get an error window:

Unable to open document

Unhandled MIME type: 'application/octet-stream'

I've messed with mozpluggerrc to use acroread, then I triedevince. Same problem.


FWIW, x86_64.

Any help appreciated
