Description Ferdinand Gassauer 2007-02-16 17:26:09 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 3.5.6 "release 25.2" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18.2-34-default

Hi!

1) konqueror hangs after setting the encoding for remote sites. (all konqueror processes have to be killed manually)

2) if the encoding is set to iso 8859-1 then iso 8859-13 is used - looks like the matching function returns the first substring match.

setting to 8859-15 works fine (but I do not need this one ;-)

Hi!
any hint available how to get around this problem?
I even could recompile KDE libs and base to fix this if I would now what to change.

Comment 2 Ferdinand Gassauer 2007-05-22 18:10:40 UTC

still hangs in 3.5.7 SVN 666333

BTW - what is default
IMHO it should be UTF-8 
but trying to access a UTF encoded filesystem with default encoding all Umlaute are crap, until I set UTF8 manually.
wrong configuration? where could I look?

Hi Ferdinand,

Do you still see this issue in KDE 4.x ? Does it happen with the other ioslaves, e.g. kio_ftp ? I suspect it is bigger than this io-slave so the bug report does not belong here at all...

Comment 4 Ferdinand Gassauer 2009-03-09 01:08:21 UTC

Thanks - 
4.2.1 seems to work fine

Comment 5 Dawit Alemayehu 2009-03-09 05:48:06 UTC

Closing based on response from reporter. Thanks Ferdinand...
