Hi! On Ubuntu, I think Sage finds xdg-open and uses that, so it'll use whatever xdg-open is set to use to view pngs.
It looks like Sage calls sage.misc.viewer.browser() instead of sage.misc.viewer.png_viewer() even when it knows that the file is a png.
You can change the default viewer by typing
sage.misc.viewer.BROWSER = 'gpicview'
at the command line. (This may cause problems for anything which uses BROWSER but which gpicview can't handle, though..)

UPDATE:
If you want this to be the new default setting, you can add the above line to ~/.sage/init.sage:
localhost-2:~ $ cat ~/.sage/init.sage
# personal options
sage.misc.viewer.BROWSER = 'gpicview'
The init.sage file is executed at startup time.
