[newbie] Kmail / Konqueror question / bug report

2001-09-08 Thread Charlie Oriez

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Running Mandrake 8.0 with KDE 2.1.1 and Konqueror 2.1.1 and Kmail 1.2 
(all standard with the M8.0 power relase)

When I click in a URL in an email on kmail, it starts Konqueror to 
view the URL.  

1) I want to use Netscape or Opera as my default instead, but can't 
find where to change the default

2) Konqueror frequently crashes under the following conditions, which 
is why I want to make the change:

I have ads.doubleclick.net (and a couple of varients) resolved in my 
/etc/hosts file to 127.0.0.1 to both speed up downloads and more 
importantly to protest their previously announced intentions to 
harvest personal information from people browsing pages which include 
doubleclick banner ads.

Konqueror sometimes reacts to the inability to find the appropriate 
doubleclick banner(s) by giving me one or more error popup boxes.  

On a fair number of occasions when dealing with these intentional  
errors, Konqueror crashes, with the following info showing in the 
SIGSEGV (signal 11) crash handler.  I've yet to get these on pages 
that dont have these error boxes popping up, and the offending class 
in the trace is a red flag, which is why I suspect the connection:

WORKAROUNDI've seen suggestions elsewhere that resolving to 0.0.0.0 
instead of 127.0.0.1 to block obnoxious banner ads yields cleaner 
results.  Opinions?/WORKAROUND

I dug thru the KDE bug reports database to see what I can find on the 
topic, found none, and got told that the version of KDE released with 
Mandrake 8.0 is too old for me to report bugs.  Interesting.  Have to 
see if upgrading buys me anything.

In KDE, go to:
Configure - KDE - File Browsing - File asociations
and there, look for html extension. Konqueror will appear as
preffered app to open it. Just add or select Netscape Navigator first.
I don't know nothing about that bug...
