I have looked at file associations and at the Konqueror preferences. All seem normal.
What is associated with jpeg in the "Embeding" tab of the file association dialog?

Charles, "Embedding" is setup as "Use setting for 'image group'"
The image group is setup as "Show file in embedded viewer"
I have also tried changing the jpeg embedding to "Show file in embedded viewer" without any luck.
My Services Preference Order is Gwenview, Embeddable Image Viewer, Viewer.
I have what may be the same problem. I've tried moving the preference order around. No change. I've switched among Embeddable Image Viewer and KView Image Viewer, and whatever else looked remotely useful. No change. Whenever I left-click a JPG icon or filename in Konq, the message is: "/home/<path>/somefile.jpg is a file, but a folder was expected." When I [OK] that, the file pane in Konq is empty until I click the back arrow, at which point the current-directory file-list (or icons or thumbnails.... whatever...) reappears. If the file is a png or gif, etc., it is immediately displayed in the embedded viewer... just not jpegs. I've had the problem for a couple of years and through four or five versions of SuSE (currently at 10.0). I can set up the previewer (where it looks similar to Gwenview, with the current image displayed in one pane and the thumbnails in another), and that works, but just having a regular two-pane Konq setup, with one pane being the navigation tree, and the other the file-list, gives the error message , followed by a blank pane, whenever I click a JPG. On another machine in the house (which has also had SuSE for a few years), there's no problem. A click on a .jpg displays it immediately within Konqueror. Other than browsing through the Configuration editor, hoping to stumble on what obscure setting is causing this, I have not expended a lot of effort, since it's a minor annoyance. I usually open GwenView right away. Still... it's an irritation. It would be nice to know what's wrong and how it got bent. Kevin
