Description Jorma Veijanen 2010-09-07 11:00:33 UTC
Application: konqueror (4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2))
KDE Platform Version: 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2)
Qt Version: 4.6.2
Operating System: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic i686
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

-- Information about the crash:
I was trying to start use K once again and was trying to find place at K-desktop where to write direct www-address. 
1. After K started, in first view there was "google + empty box " in middle of desktop BUT I was looking where to write direct "www-address". No success.
2. Because there wasn't any better place, I wrote www-address after "google..". then..
3. Then I tried to add "www-address-box" or what ever the name is (in finnish there was "sijainti", "sijaintipaikka", but no icons associated them). I add them to tools, I saw them,  but Iwasn't able select them or no any kind of box (?) pop-up where I should write www-address.

then K collapsed.
From my point of view, you are hiding (purpously ?) some trivial steps from newbies, so they can't disturb your nice K-world with stupid questions, right ?

I have tried several times during 3 years to use K (+ co), but even help systems are impossible to use. I got instruction "install k-help center" etc, then I install them, BUT NOTHING changes = help isn't available !!!!!

Propably I have to quit.....................

Thanks for the bug report! I'm not sure if I understand what your problem is. Is "K" Konqueror or KDE for you?

If I understand you correctly, you want to enter a web-address to be opened. You can either open Konqueror and then enter the address in the location bar (below the menu bar), or you can press Alt-F2 and enter the address there. Does that work for you?

This is not the case.
Comment 2 Jorma Veijanen 2010-09-09 11:26:18 UTC
Dear Frank, thank you very much of your fast response.
Some clarifications; K = Konqueror now to me and I'm running K under
Ubuntu as you have seen from log.
"Alt-F2" starts "running application" of Ubuntu, and keyboard short-cuts
of K doesn't include "Alt-F2".
1. 
In my trials two days ago I run K as normal user and then I can see the
address-bar, hi-light it, BUT I wasn't able to write anything.
2.
BUT now I tested it starting with "gksu Konqueror" and I was able to
write to the address-bar !
Is something missing in my installation (after re-installation with
Synaptic K worked similarly as before) ? 

Or should I use it always as superuser ?
Similar behaviour was also with "kdiff3", it started to make selected
actions after I start it with "gksu" also. As normal user it made
comparisons, that's all.
--------------- 
Probably my installation lacks some basic items of KDE ?
Best Regards, jorma veijanen.

No, it should work for any user, of course :-)

Maybe. Do you run Konqueror in a KDE session or in another desktop environment?
Comment 4 Jorma Veijanen 2010-09-12 14:00:04 UTC
Dear Frank,
I'm using Konqueror in Ubuntu / Gnome session/desktop.
what do you recommend to improve situation ?
yours jorma veijanen

Comment 5 Frank Reininghaus 2010-09-12 14:12:36 UTC
I think there was a bug report about problems when starting KDE apps from a non-KDE session, but I can't find it right now. You could try to start a KDE session - KDE apps should work fine then. It could be that it also works in Gnome after you've done that once, but I'm not sure.
Comment 6 Dario Andres 2010-12-15 15:37:24 UTC
[Comment from a bug triager]
There is a related report with a similar trace: bug 245574 (most of the backtrace matches if we consider the empty spaces), also the "setting" situations matches.
@Frank: what do you think ?
Regards
Comment 7 Frank Reininghaus 2010-12-15 20:44:54 UTC
Thanks Darío - I think you're right.
