Version: Knoqueror 3.0.3-14 red Hat (Using KDE 3.0.3-8 Red Hat) (using KDE KDE 3.0.3) Installed from: RedHat RPMs Compiler: Don't know, but...This is a fresh RedHat 8.0 install; I also updated RPMS using RedHat Network. OS: Linux I saw this same problem in the previous-entry bug list, but I don't see any solution offered other than "install lesstif". I also saw this mentioned in the Konqueror FAQ, but I really do not think that it is a reasonable response in this case. First of all, I'm a Linux newbie. I installed Red Hat 8.0 on this system, and I have also updated the distribution with all the latest RPMs via RedHat Network. Since I have not compiled anything myself, the instructions regarding "lesstif" in the FAQ don't seem to apply. Secondly, this bug needs to be fixed in the distributions. I don't know whos responsibility that is, but it needs to be fixed. The know-nothing end-user to whom all this fancy graphical front-end is meant to appeal (or at least not *completely* frighten), won't have the slightest idea what to do with the *single*, very terse response to this issue: "install lesstif". Thanks, Bruce.
Why do you report this to KDE if you realize that it has to be fixed by the distribution?
Because I didn't know *where* to report it! If KDE were *my* product, and users were frustrated or confused because of its behavior after installing a very popular distribution, *I* would want to know about it. If no one *here* wants to know that people are *still* having problems, then accept my apologies for bothering you. Being infinitely more knowledgeable about your product than I, what, exactly, would you suggest that I *say* to Red Hat? "Gee, uh, KDE's Konqueror doesn't work right when I..." They would direct me back here so fast my head would spin! In the end, it's no skin off *my* back. If KDE ends up being frustrating, I'll use GNOME. If enough other people feel the same way, then you won't ever be bothered by newbies like me again! Bruce.
I'm sorry that you have this problem, but we cannot do anything about this. It's far beyond our control. You should file this bug report with RedHat. You have filed a bug with the programmers, when the bug is completely under control of the packagers. It would really be good if you could file this bug with RedHat though.
