Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.0) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc (GCC) 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12) OS: Linux On each start, the sorting of the news article list changes. I start KNode and the sorting is "Date". I quit and start again and it is "Date (Thread changed)". I quit and start again and it is back to "Date". And so on, and so on... I disabled the SortByThreadChange in headerview.cpp with the patch that you'll find below and now it works for me. But people who want to sort by thread change may want a "real" fix. --- headerview.cpp 2005-02-04 00:12:08.000000000 +0100 +++ /usr/local/src/kde/kdepim-3.4.0/knode/headerview.cpp 2005-03-27 01:08:11.000000000 +0100 @@ -209,7 +209,7 @@ if ( column == mSortCol ) { mSortAsc = ascending; if ( column == mPaintInfo.dateCol && ascending ) - mSortByThreadChangeDate = !mSortByThreadChangeDate; + mSortByThreadChangeDate = false; //!mSortByThreadChangeDate; } else { mSortCol = column; emit sortingChanged( column );
