>From the error message it is hard to tell what the reason is. Similar error message exist for other KDE programs as well, but no reliable cause or way to solve is documented. As the search-the-web part has been heavily improved since the beta1 you are using, I would recommend that you ask Michael to provide you with a .deb package of the current SVN snapshot. Maybe the problem has been resolved already. -- Thomas _______________________________________________ kbibtex-user mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/kbibtex-user
