All,
I was away from my computer for a while and came back and there was a "KDE
SSL Information" dialog on my screen informing me of a problem with the
national weather service NOAA site certificate. Here is what I saw:
https://paste.opensuse.org/37109107
I've used KDE3 since? SUSE 8? and I've never just had this dialog appear.

I do have bookmarks for the weather sites in Firefox, but not in konqueror.
While konqueror in KDE3 may be the best file-manager ever made, the browser
side has been dated and dead for a decade. So I have no clue what generated
this dialog.
Anybody else ever see one, or have an idea what triggered it?

All,
Just tried the Fusion-Icon to mess with compiz a bit. It was working on
15.0, but needed help with some of the various features, but on 15.4, it won't
start at all resulting in:
$ fusion-icon
* Using the Qt4 Interface
* No module named PyQt4
... Trying another interface
* Using the Qt3 Interface
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Any idea where to start here? Open a bug?
I'll see if I can start compiz manually with compiz --replace to switch
from kwin to compiz, but fusion-…
[View More]icon is the convenient way to do it as well as
switch back and forth between the window decorators.

All,
For completeness, this "Server Authentication" dialog is the first dialog
that was shown, clicking "Details" brought up the last one I posted:
https://paste.opensuse.org/33161863
I haven't attempted any connection to tgftp.nws.noaa.gov. That's what makes
this so bizarre. I did get a recent e-mail from them:
nws.radarfeedback(a)noaa.gov
But that was in Thunderbird. There isn't any attachment or live link to any
ftp site there, so I'm at a loss at what triggered the "Server …
[View More]Authentication"
and SSL Information dialogs.
UNLESS -- this is the kweather app connection -- now this is making sense
(though I didn't know that was SSL or that a cert-error in kweather could
trigger a check??)
