Good question (what if I rename a test.NEF to test.nef?)
That didn't work.
geeqie --version yields geeqie1.1 .... which is what i got from sudo
apt-get install.
Interesting that geeqie starts external editor gimp with any incoming *.jpg
*.png *.gif or even *.tif but not *.nef or *.NEF, even though geeqie makes
the NEF thumbnails nicely.
I posted this on a mint linux forum and someone else (using KDE) said it
worked for them. Perhaps this is a MimeType issue outside of geeqie? I'll
poke around.
I'm thinking about backing up my user files and installing a latest and
greatest KDE (am now using Mint Mate)
