Hi everybody, Before using this beautifull theme/style consider this a warning: don't use it with the current stable version 2.1.1 (even with kdelibs 2.1.2). The only way this theme works is with the current cvs-code. Otherwise your kde will freeze and you will have to manually hack some config-files to get back on track.

I really wish that I had read this before trying it.. you are very right.. things are definitely not right in konqueror-ville today... it dies when clicking on the icon. Ugh. What can I hack to turn back? Thanks, Steven
hi steven, well... that happened to mee to, and it only happens (at least for me) when changing the decoration of the windows to liquid. to get rid of it, edir ~/.kde2/share/config/kwinrc and delete the [Style] section (there is only one entry in this section...) after that kde comes up fine again ..... the rest of the liquid style works so far ....

Just for the record -- what was causing Konqueror to puke all over itself was the konq_history file in ~/.kde2/share/apps/konqueror Have fun, Steven On Friday 15 June 2001 20:16, Christian Klippel wrote:

Mine died too, but in WindowMaker all the kde apps get the look and work fine. So Im loathe to remove it as it makes konqueror look great. Anyone know more about this style thing, Im hoping it becomes a standard part of kde because the effect is so nice. dids

There's been some debate on the KDE development list about the legal issues. Everyone likes it, but as KDE have already been the subject of interest of Apple's legal pack dogs, they are rather keen not to step on any toes. Anything other than another cease and desist letter could mean serious trouble. Mosfet is pushing hard to get the style into KDE-2.2.0, but whether he will succeed is a question yet to be answered.
Hi all, I'm subscribed to the kde-devel mailinglist and there is a rumble going on because Mosfet has removed all his "non-important" styles from the cvs-tree. He is pissed off about something. People from KDE are trying to pursuede him in putting them back, but so far no luck. So if things won't go well we will not see Liquid in KDE and maybe not even most of the other cool styles in there from mosfet. I myself hope mosfet will change his mind. Hope I didn't scare people :-). Nash On Monday 18 June 2001 09:22, you wrote:

That's only partly true. SuSE is still free to bundle Mosfet's styles (and anything else they see fit) with their RPMs. I don't think we humble end users will notice a difference Regards Anders On Monday 18 June 2001 16:26, Nash Hoogwater wrote:

I've been on that list a couple of years and IMHO Mosfet is a fiery character who takes things very personally. He'll probably calm down, although whether he'll put his code back in I don't know. Doesn't look like it at the moment. It's not a great issue though. As he says himself, there's plenty of scope for having his own development CVS which distributors like SuSE can take code from. It just means a bit more work for SuSE, plus a risk that I18N isn't going to get done.
Oops sorry about that... thanks for the quick catch, Nash...

Wow!!! When I tried "acqua" style (MacOS X-like), it applied succesfully but when restarting KDE (2.1.1 + 2.1.2), it crashed it... Since I am a lamer I had to login to KDE1 and delete my home .kde2 folder in order to get it working again... [in real life, I deleted not only the .kde2, but my entire home folder.... hehe] Yours, Ziga

Erk, it shouldn't do that. I've been running the Acqua-Graphite style/theme here for some weeks now, not only on my laptop and main workstation, but also on my iMac (all running SuSE 7.1 with KDE2 upgraded to the latest), with no trouble whatsoever.

Is it possible I should hae checked the "Restore session" when restarting KDE??? Never tried that though... Rachel Greenham wrote:
