Yes, Sans Serif is the default General font and seemed bolder before the changes. I've tried to set bold and it is way to BOLD :( And the default font is not smooth, I tried checking off anti-aliasing. Aren't there some files I could possibly copy over from a new user login or my root login that would give me all the default styles, fonts, etc. back? Thanks. -- Robert

Konqueror as Browser
by Langsley 06 Sep '05

06 Sep '05

Hi all. I'm using SUSE 9.3 on an AMD 64 machine. In trying to use Konqueror 3.4.0 as my web browser I often get unknown host errors when trying to access web sites This happens even with sites like Google, example below. An error occurred while loading http://www.google.com/search?q=google&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8: Unknown host www.google.com Often I will try the same URL three or four times before it finally connects. This doesn't happen all the time but much too often to be acceptable. Other times I will get a file not found error. Still other times it will work fine. Can anybody offer any insight?! TIA. -- LTR bulloved(a)nitline.com

Default fonts
by Robert Fitzpatrick 06 Sep '05

06 Sep '05

I was messing with Themes and Styles, but lost the original fonts in KDE and would like them back. But I cannot find a Theme or Font setting that looks the same as it was by default and the Defaults button does not produce the old font either. How can I get the default settings back? -- Robert

Problem with KNemo and KMail
by Shriramana Sharma 05 Sep '05

05 Sep '05

I downloaded the sources of KNemo from http://packman.links2linux.com/?action=439 and successfully ./configure make and make install -ed them. But how do I load KNemo? The KDE Apps page at http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=12956 says: KNemo is not an executable but an KDED service. Therefore it has to be started using Control Center/KDE Components/Service Manager. But the service manager doesn't show KNemo. What do I do? Please advise. Thanks. Regarding KMail, the problem is: I have added suse-linux-e(a)suse.com to my address book and given it the nickname SLE. When I used to use Mozilla I used to be able to just enter the nickname and Mozilla would automatically expand it to the full. Doesn't this work so with KMail? Thanks again. -- (o- Penguin #395953 lives at http://samvit.org //\ subsisting on ancient Indian wisdom ... V_/_ and modern computing efficiency! :)

Folder-sensitive identity selection in KMail?
by Shriramana Sharma 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Back in Mozilla, I used to have separate inbox/outbox/drafts/etc folders for each account. So whenever I used to reply to a particular account's inbox, that account's identity would be used. Now in KMail, is it possible to tell KMail to use a particular identity when my focus is on a particular folder? I have a folder for my newsletter POP account (both inbox and sent items in that single folder) and similarly for my Linux comms (s-l-e, s-kde, s-ot etc) I have a folder called linux with inbox and sent items. Whenever I reply to something that comes on my newsletter account, I would like KMail to use the identity that I have configured with that POP account's address, and whenever I reply to something that comes on my Linux account, I would like it to use this address/identity, and elsewhere, my IMAP identity for pure personal communication. Is this possible? Thanks. -- (o- Penguin #395953 lives at http://samvit.org //\ subsisting on ancient Indian wisdom ... V_/_ and modern computing efficiency! :)

by Shriramana Sharma 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

In Mozilla I used to be able to use page up, page down, home and end to navigate among the messages list, but I am unable to do this with KMail. What do I do to get this functionality to work with KMail. -- (o- Penguin #395953 lives at http://samvit.org //\ subsisting on ancient Indian wisdom ... V_/_ and modern computing efficiency! :)
