When I right-click on a .sxw file and select "edit file type" I get the 
following:

- filename patterns, *.sxw ... add that if you don't see it, probably remove
  other things
- Description, OpenOffice.org 1.0 Text Document
- Application Preference Order, OOO 1.1.0 Math, OOO 1.1.0 Writer, OO Writer

Clearly my application preference order doesn't make a lot of sense but it 
works.  Make sure you have an application pointing to /usr/bin/oowriter (or 
whatever your binary is for that).
