Yeah, that was it. (At least, restarting X fixed it.) Thank you. Now, why, when I completely remove Konqueror from /etc/mailcap (because I don't want it to ever start automatically) do I find it nevertheless the default program to open both PDF and HTML files a day later?

This happened to me the first time I tried to run Konqueror after upgrading to 3.3. I was running fluxbox when I upgraded KDE, and nothing from KDE would run properly until I logged into KDE at least once. Once was enough.

Pete PS, The reason I was wondering why you were using konqi and not kde is that konqi drags in a lot of kde stuff, so using it as a stand alone browser uses a lot of memory. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

* Jon Dowland [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2005 Jan 07 08:52 -0600]: On my 450mhz, konqueror is the only fully-featured GUI browser that runs at any kind of usable speed. Wow! I use both Firefox and Mozilla 1.8a5 (mozilla.org builds) on this 333 MHz PII laptop. Granted, I have 192 MiB of RAM in it, but they ran very well when it was at 128 MiB. I am limited by a dial-up connection so browser speed may not be as noticable, but even compared to my 1.33 GHz Athlon desktop this machine isn't really much slower rendering most pages. Browser startup and rendering extremely large pages takes a bit longer as one would expect. And, performance may be reduced a bit further because of hotplug and other things not running on the desktop. I remember loading a few large pages on Netscape 2.0 back on my old 386/40--now that was an event to pack a lunch for! Heck, I ever run Moz browsers on an old Thinkpad 760ED at times. Now, that does seem a bit pokey these days. The only time I've run Konqi is when I've played with Knoppix on this laptop. I didn't notice enough speed improvement, if I noticed any at all, to cause me to load up all the KDE libs...

Broken Konqueror?
On a newly-updated Sarge system I'm now finding a totally broken Konqueror. Trying to load any web page gives me the frightening message: Protocol not supported http So, a web browser that doesn't support http? Odd. BTW, the breaking-glass sound effect added to this makes it even more irritating. Do I have to load the rest of the very-annoying KDE to find the stupid configuration option to turn off the sound FX? -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jabootu's Minister of Proofreading http://www.jabootu.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Ok. To explain, konqi doesn't support http, kde does. You need a package called something like the kdebase-kio-plugins package to get http support. Remember, konqi isn't a web browser. In answer to your question about sound effects, you need to install kdebase and start up kde to turn of the sound effects. if the effort of doing this is too much for you, you could go though the KconfigXT code in konqi, work out which bit links up with the sound effects, then figure out what to put in ~/.kde . I think you are better off installing, fixing and then removing. Pete PS, why are you using konqi if you don't like kde? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Broken Konqueror
After removing all Progeny references from sources.list and running apt-get -f dist-upgrade numerous times, konqueror seems broken. I can browse my file system but not the web. This is the error: kio (Scheduler): ERROR: ERROR 3: couldn't create slave : Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_http'. kio (Scheduler): kio (KRun): ERROR: 0x82186a0 ERROR 3 Could not start process Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Error loading 'kio_http'. kio (KRun): What steps should I take to isolate and solve the problem?
