Version: 3.5.9-7.fc8 (using KDE 3.5.9) Installed from: Fedora RPMs Bug 159242 states konqueror version 3.5.9-5.fc8 worked for that user but konqueror version 3.5.9-7.fc8 still has the problem. My machine is fully updated so let me know if there are any logs you want me to post. If you use the konq buttons to navigate then it only hangs konq. If you attempt to type in a path that accesses root (e.g., /etc/init.d) then all of KDE will freeze. Terminal access to root paths is A-OK.
Four people in IRC with various configurations (Kubuntu, Debian, Gentoo, Fedora) have tried to reproduce this bug in konquer 3.5.x and none could. The one using Fedora was using Fedora 8, kde 3.5.9-5, konqueror 3.5.9-7. Anyone can still reproduce this bug?
This sounds like a "works for me", but if you have this problem in 4, please reopen. Thanks.
