Hi Craig,
some time ago I had the same problem. It occured after my upgrade to SUSE 9.2 which actives subfs by default. The cause was that I had a symbolic link floppy to /media/floppy in /, an entry in /etc/fstab for the floppy drive, but no floppy drive. I suppose konqueror tried to read through the symlink which caused subfs to mount the no existing floppy device, which caused konqueror to hang. After removing the symlink konqueror worked fine again.

I removed the link, and now it works! Thank you. That will save me the pain of a total reinstall to fix one annoyance.
