yes, this is normal, since .pd file does not have a mime time, so gnome see it as a text file. here is what need to be done in order to make it work as expected (on ubuntu):
# add mime type to .pd files cp mime_pd-extended.xml /usr/share/mime/packages/pd-extended.xml update-mime-database /usr/share/mime # add icon to this mime type # works curently only on gnome, is it possible to find a better way to do this? cp /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/pd.png /usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/mimetypes/gnome-mime-application-pd-extended.png chmod 644 /usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/mimetypes/gnome-mime-application-pd-extended.png gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/gnome/ # adding pd by default on clicking on this files echo "application/pd-extended=pd-extended.desktop" >> /usr/share/applications/defaults.list

Hi, something weird is happening if I want to open pd patches with double clic, it opens the patch with gedit
any good gnome user would tell me to right clic on the patch icon and select open with pd
and it works
but after I do this setting, .txt files are opened with pd!??
so I do right clic on txt file, open with gedit
and it works
but after I do this setting, .pd files are opened with gedit
and so on
do someone has the same behavior?
This is happening on ubuntu hardy i386 and pd-extended
