Description Bradlee Sargent 2009-06-24 12:52:58 UTC

Version:           1.2-alpha1 (using 4.2.86 (KDE 4.2.86 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090514)) "release 1", openSUSE Factory)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.30-rc6-git3-4-default

I open konversation and click on connect, and it says the following and nothing else:
[06:46] [Info] Looking for server chat.freenode.net:8001...
[06:46] [Info] Server found, connecting...

It never seems to connect.
I believe the reason may be that I am behind a proxy that requires basic authentication.
When I open other internet applications, I am usually prompted for a username and password which identifies me to the proxy server so I can go ahead and connect to the internet.
Konversation does not do this.

How can I download the source and what IDE should I use to compile it and see whats going on?

Konversation doesn't have proxy support at present.

Check http://konversation.kde.org/ for where to find the source code (see the "Get from SVN" link in the menu and look for the info on the KDE 4 port in the wiki page it links to).

No IDE is required to compile Konversation. Popular IDEs among KDE developers are KDevelop and QtCreator.

This is a duplicate of either bug #135061 or bug #105844 depending on what type of proxy you want to use.

SVN commit 1011502 by psn:

Add socks v5 and http proxy support which uses the same proxy settings
for all connections.
