Do note that setting an AppArmor profile on ANY KDE application is liable to give strange problems due to KDE's process model. AppArmor attaches profiles to programs at exec() time, based on the image that is used to execute the new process. KDE starts a single process, kdeinit, that incurs all the runtime startup costs associated with creating a new process. A typical KDE application links in a ton of libraries; this takes time. KDE avoids the startup time when creating new programs by simply cloning the kdeinit task and jumping to the entry point in the right library to run whatever program you need. The upshot of all this is that if you run 'konqueror', it will simply notify kdeinit to create a new instance of itself and run the konqueror widget. The first time a KDE program is run, it sets up this machinery.. So if you confine any KDE application, you run the risk that all your KDE applications will run under that profile. You can set the following environment variables to force KDE to avoid the fast-start procedures, and allow more sane use of AppArmor profiles with KDE: export KDE_EXEC_SLAVES=1 export KDE_IS_PRELINKED=1 Hope this helps :) (though sadly not the original poster..) pgpn5zAxKV7O7.pgp Description: PGP signature

So we have a bug in the offline mode code that I added to the KDE that will go out in 10.3. Would you mind helping me troubleshoot this? I'm concerned because you didn't say that it was blocking network access when knetworkmanager was obviously offline. If so, please open a bug at bugzilla.novell.com, assigned to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED] there) and we can break it down step by step. I have a number of questions for you and Raymond but I'd rather do it in Bugzilla.

In the first instance, I simply shut down knetworkmanager and then konqueror was instantly able to load web pages as normal. FANTASTIC. It's a double-edged sword having all kde's app integration.

The only UNIQUE feature that I can think of is that I migrated/copied my user settings from opensuse 10.1 to a new install of 10.2. Perhaps I need to delete /home/gavin/.kde/share/apps/konqueror and let it be recreated fresh? Would that help?

Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't played with apparmor, I remain blissfully ignorant of its use ;-) but I checked that there was no blocking in the default profile. I even checked firewall settings and turned it off momentarily but it made no difference.

[opensuse] konqueror browser
I know this is a shot in the dark for you all, but I am at a loss completely ... No matter what settings I try I can't get konqueror to connect to the web. No problems with any other browser or transfer process, just konqueror. I've checked proxy settings (none needed), I've checked it's not set for working offline (duh!), I've checked ... , but all I get is "An error occurred while loading http://www.xxx.com: Could not connect to host http://www.xxx.com"; I am running the opensuse latest kde desktop and latest version of konqueror from opensuse repos on opensuse 10.2. I have another machine with opensuse 10.1 and have never had problems. Gavin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
