OK, since you all are so amazingly quick at answers, here's another question: On my new clean install of 8.2, I've got the file association for html set to Opera, then Mozilla, then Konqueror. However, when I click on a link in Knode, nothing happens. The cursor starts off by being the little hand, then changes to a little pointing hand (like the one in Mozilla), but nothing happens.
Ok, did you think to check your settings in KNode to see if it let you set the browser there as well? Sounds like it is getting half of what it needs, but not all. I too use knode for news, but have never changed from Konq as my browser. I have the latest Opera too, but don't find it as stable as Konq to use for everything. While you are in KNode settings, look at Reading News>Viewer and see if you have a setting for the browser used. :o)

Patrick, you are brilliant. I looked again, and saw that the browser was set to Mozilla instead of Opera. No wonder the little hand turned into the Mozilla hand! Sorry to have taken your time with this - I guess I was tired and missed it. This was the worst install I've ever had with SuSE - on the same machine that has been happily running 8.0 and then 8.1 for a year with the same hardware, 8.2 couldn't handle the NIC and the SCSI adapter sharing the same IRQ. I spent a lot of time with this, finally just giving up and removing the adapter and the Cheetah. So I had to rebuild my system and I'm sorry I missed such a simple configuration issue in Knode. Thanks so much for the help. I really appreciate it. Gratefully, Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com Don't Panic!
