Hi, first a word on Mozilla.
Most of us know that the newest stable version can be found on ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/mozilla This directory does not appear to be on any of the mirrors. I have just found the beast on the mirrors - go to (for example) i386/supplementary/GNOME/update_for_8.0/base/ Which is (I am sure) the only logical place to hide it ;-)
I don't know about other mirrors, but ftp.gwdg.de mirrors the pub tree under ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com. Consequently, the mozilla directories can be found at ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/projects/mozilla/ The version in the GNOME update tree is not the same.
Now to kde. I spend quite a bit of time in mozilla under kde. While the Konq hardly ever aborts on me, Mozilla is a lot less stable. This is my second attempt at writing this mail because the first one got lost when Mozilla died when my DSL connection timed out. The original 8.0 versions of kde3 and Mozilla were just plain instable, the newest versions are a bit better. When I start Mozilla, moving the mouse before it has completely loaded often causes it to fail to load. This failure in turn often then causes kdeinit to terminate (error message: something to do with DCOP) which means I have to exit kde, kill the startx session with .ctrl.C and try again. I wonder if other people recognise those symptoms.
I've never seen it. mozilla isn't a kde app and doesn't communicate with the dcop server at all, so I suspect the troubles you're seeing are something else. Mozilla as such can be a bit dodgy, but since I upgraded to 1.1alpha I haven't had any problems. //Anders
