I haven't use Konqueror in 10 years or so, despite using KDE almost exclusively. But then I never really bought into the whole "desktop environment" thing on Linux. If it's not going to be dictated from on high (viz. Apple or MS) then there is no hope of getting everyone aboard one DE, and therefore the whole selling point of a DE -- full integration with apps -- is never going to happen. I use KDE mainly as a window system, but I have FF and Chrome for browsing and Evolution for email, because each of them is better than the KDE equivalent for my purposes. I just don't care that much about honouring icon themes. (I do care a lot about incompatible keyring or wallet systems, but I don't want to turn this into another rant). poc _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
