Wow, what hostility. For your info I don't use Koqoueror for a file manager (unless I am using fish://). I have Konqueror, Mozilla, Firefox, Dillo, lynx, w3m, and W3 installed on my computer, however I still prefer Koqueror for browsing.

because that's what Konqueror is, a file manager. It's a wanna-be web browser at best.

Really, when will Mozilla/Firefox pass the Acid2 test? The SVN version of Konqueror already does: http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/1129 Charles -- Sigh. I like to think it's just the Linux people who want to be on the "leading edge" so bad they walk right off the precipice. (Craig E. Groeschel)

Have you tried spoofing your agent to something else?

Does spoofing mean making my agent to look like some other agent? How do I do that in Konqueror?

Hasn't it? I'm surprised. Searching... Confirmed. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=289480 reads this. It's about the Core (Gecko?) so it should be common to both Firefox and SeaMonkey.

The SVN version of Konqueror already does:

Can you please test and tell me whether this SVN version is accepted by GMail too? (I do not have the know how to download SVN and all this techie stuff...) http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=307609 says "iCab (beta)" passes the acid2 test.

Either click on the icon in your toolbar that looks like a brown hat or choose "Change browser identification" in the "Tools" menu. If that works you should send a bug report to Google.

That did not work. Tried spoofing as Mozilla 1.6, and it hung at the "Loading..." page. Tried spoofing as IE6 on Win XP, and got following error: "Gmail requires ActiveX controls to be enabled". Looks like it's Konqueror that's at fault. Let's pray that the SVN version gets implemented into KDE 3.42 soon.

According to this it works if you use "Other ==> Firefox 1.0". Also, if Mozilla 1.6 is the highest Mozilla version in that menu- it means that you have an old KDE, you should upgrade to 3.4.x.
