Re: [expert] konquerer no long works...
I find strace helpful in such situations. i.e., in a terminal: strace konqueror /tmp/konqueror.trace 21 Using this method, I was able to track down a problem with Galeon (it would load then hang) to something to do with history.xml After deleting .galeon/history.xml, Galeon started working again. You may also want to try this from a different user account. If it works for other user accounts, but not yours, the problem is likely something to do with your user account's konqueror settings or permissions. If it works as only root, then it's likely a permissions problem. -pete On Sat, 5 May 2001, Neal Lippman wrote: Any help appreciated. I am using konquerer under KDE 2.1 (the MDK rpms).

Re: [expert] konquerer no long works...
I should have been a little more verbose, i'm sorry. I wasn't suggesting that you become root every time you want to browse the web, i was just suggesting that it might be a permissions problem. And if that's the case then you could do some debugging to find out what permissions are blocking you. If you switch over to Netscape, Mozilla, or something else then you better hope that whatever this problem is, it doesn't start cropping up elsewhere also j --- Neal Lippman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I don't think there is anything that it cannot access; it seems more like some sort of configuration problem in that it used to work just fine.

Also the behavoir is flakey; last night, I was able to open links in a new window from kmail but not from a konqueror window itself. Maybe I need to just switch completely over to Netscape.
