I have followed your discussion on SLE. I have exactly the same problem but reinstallation of the RPM doesn't fix it. When I try to open a .doc file with kword 1.1beta3 I receive a messagebox saying that there is no filter for application x-doc. I did associate application/x-doc with kword in the konqueror list of mime types, but it won't open them. I am using kde 2.2 beta from ftp.kde.org on suse 7.2. Can you think of something else that you might have done that restored the functionality? Many thanks, Henry Harpending On Thursday 05 July 2001 03:41 pm, Tazio Ceri wrote:
I reistalled the rpm, and the problem disappeared. I have had success in adding .doc in the filter list, by selecting a doc document in konqueror and make it use kword to read it. I did the same with kspread, too. It was just the missing MIME type that made it not appear in the filter list. Staroffice.. deinstalled at last!
Thanks all for the suggestions, Tazio
