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?
I am one of the people that still have not received 7.2.... even though I preordered it, but that's another rant. So... I don't know if it is related to the 7.2 thing... doubt it. My suggestion.... remove KOffice completely from your system, and reinstall with the latest build from the KOffice website (or the RPMs from SuSE). I have had similar problems with other apps, and this was what was suggested to me... seemed to work for other apps that were giving trouble. Later C.
