Hi Duncan Thanks for your detailed replies. I've entered all but the konqueror
bookmark problem into the suse bug list. I need to study that one more
carefully. I've rated 2 of them as critical as they meet the criteria. I would
hope they remain like that.
On the above it looks very much like it is power save as kmail has done
exactly the same thing. I deleted a mail after using the phone and of course
as the 1st one didn't work I tried again. Not sure but don't think it caught
up with the deletes . I often use shift delete !
I minimised the window and then bought it up again. About 5 or so secs later
it filled in the pane. This is typical of the firefox going awol as well so
looks to be systemish rather than a particular app. I notice a kernel append
used in failsafe mode to disable power save completely. Think I'll try adding
that. Power saves drive many people up the wall. That button I mentioned
deserves some consideration.
I have found pervious incarnations of Firefox slightly flaky when multiple
windows are open. I haven't hit this version ( 4.0) really hard yet but appart
from a slight drop in speed it seems ok. As is 4.6.0 release 6 KDE actually
from a stability point using the term loosely. All installed clean from the
suse dvd onto new disks. That's why I upgraded. One of my disks was
overheating and throwing errors so it was time to throw the lot away.
The only real problem with this kde release so far is data migration. I
suspect there are a number of people about that are still on late 3.x releases
as they don't like gnome. ;-) I don't even after ungnoming it as much as
possible. Looking at the opensuse forum it's even possible to use the latest
dvd's and then install late 3.x plus apps not using 4 at all. Some no doubt
will have done that as well so migration from that era is important.
Spell check by the way is hanging around for even less time now and my fading
windows are now rock solid. No reboots for 2 days and no changes made by me
either. ;-) Ah well I suppose it's entertaining but suspect it's time for the
devs to stop iterating on crumbly walls and to get the basics solid.
Spell checker comes alive again if any of it's options are activated. Must add
to the bug report. Looks like it's going swiss family robinson.
Regards
John
OpenSuse 11.4 KDE 4.6.0 release 6
