Description Olivier Vitrat 2007-03-21 13:52:48 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

This has been reported in Debian BTS at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=414997

QClipboard: timed out while sending data

When I try and paste a medium size text file from kedit to Firefox the transfer
will timeout.  It often occurs on 300K files and occurs all the time in files
greater than 500K.  When it times out it prints the above error on
stdout or stderr (I run kedit from a konsole).

My machine is a Pentium-M 1.7GHz, a reasonably fast machine with plenty of
RAM (no swapping) so it should not have any problems with such tasks.

I believe that kedit or the Qt libraries has a bug that hurts performance in
this regard.  Please re-assign to libqt3-mt if you believe it's not kedit
at fault.

Massive close.
KEdit -> UNMAINTAINED. 
You can use Kate from KDE4 now.
Thanks
