If you are on Debian, install xdg-utils which will give you xdg-open.
If I change the default extension-to-application mapping in Thunar (I
use XFCE) then the viewer gets chosen automatically.
See bug report rooted at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.bugs/75043
for some issues surrounding xdg-open.
