Thanks for prompt feedback. No, sadly it didn't change anything :-( What was that command attempting to do with window scaling and how would that have made a change?

I should have added that I had a problem once a long time ago because of the interconnectedness of kde apps. That is, one time I couldn't get 'kget' to do any downloads until I finally realised that konqueror was set for 'working offline'. Of course, I have checked to best of my knowledge that there is no such blockage between apps this time ;-) Gavin. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi Gavin, can you see what is the version of Konqueror. Here is openSUSE 10.2, KDE 3.5.5-45.4 and Konqueror 3.5.5, and no problems at all. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks, but your idea confirms it's not a dns issue, it made no difference, sadly :-( The summary so far: 1/ it's NOT a dns issue; 2/ it's NOT an apparmor issue; 3/ it's NOT a firewall issue; 4/ it's NOT set to 'work offline' (duh!) 5/ it's NOT a version issue - I upgraded to konqueror 3.5.5 from 3.5.4 on kde 3.5.5 opensuse 10.2 builds) and problem persisted. The only UNIQUE feature that I can think of is that I migrated/copied my user settings from opensuse 10.1 to a new install of 10.2. Perhaps I need to delete /home/gavin/.kde/share/apps/konqueror and let it be recreated fresh? Would that help?

Gavin, here's an equal shot in the dark. You didn't happen to set apparmor to watch konq, did you? I uh, managed to effectively kill dnsmasq the other day. Worked fine after I'd played with apparmor, /until/ i rebooted it and dnsmasq tried to read the config file. (I don't blame apparmor here, I just didn't know what I was doing.) If you have been playing around with it, go back through the apparmor profiles just to make sure you didn't set one on konq.

Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't played with apparmor, I remain blissfully ignorant of its use ;-) but I checked that there was no blocking in the default profile. I even checked firewall settings and turned it off momentarily but it made no difference. Still stuck, sadly :-( Gavin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Do note that setting an AppArmor profile on ANY KDE application is liable to give strange problems due to KDE's process model. AppArmor attaches profiles to programs at exec() time, based on the image that is used to execute the new process. KDE starts a single process, kdeinit, that incurs all the runtime startup costs associated with creating a new process. A typical KDE application links in a ton of libraries; this takes time. KDE avoids the startup time when creating new programs by simply cloning the kdeinit task and jumping to the entry point in the right library to run whatever program you need. The upshot of all this is that if you run 'konqueror', it will simply notify kdeinit to create a new instance of itself and run the konqueror widget. The first time a KDE program is run, it sets up this machinery.. So if you confine any KDE application, you run the risk that all your KDE applications will run under that profile. You can set the following environment variables to force KDE to avoid the fast-start procedures, and allow more sane use of AppArmor profiles with KDE: export KDE_EXEC_SLAVES=1 export KDE_IS_PRELINKED=1 Hope this helps :) (though sadly not the original poster..)
