fslint just calls xdg-open on your file.
So it seems that has broken?
Can you try this from a terminal:

xdg-open yourfile.jpg

summary: - If I open a file from fslint's display of duplicate file sets the file
- opens but my trackball buttons are immediately disabled. I have
- confirmed this on mpgs, wmvs, and jpegs. My pointer can still be moved
- but neither trackball button causes any response. Usually cntrl-alt-T
- still works and from there I can do things with the terminal. I can
- "killall whatever-ap-the-file-was-opened-with" and sometimes that shuts
- off the ap and restores my trackball buttons. Sometimes instead it kills
- that ap and opens the same file with another ap. Sometimes this series
- of aps continues until it just keeps re-opening it with the same one
- over and over again. In that case, it is usually a web browser that it
- finishes being stuck on. This does NOT happen in Maverick. It happens in
- both of two Oneiric installations I have tried. The one I'm using now,
- which is hard drive based and a live disk version of it as well. It's
- worse in the live disk. I usually have to "killall Xorg" and relog to
- get control back.
