Description Philippe Fremy 2003-02-16 20:44:22 UTC 
Version:           4.0 (using KDE 3.1.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.1 20021207 (Gentoo Linux 3.2.1-20021207)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.19-gentoo-r9

Try man:bash.

I have a bottom scrollbar which allow me to scroll the page horizontally by a few pixels, probably the size of one capitalised letter.

If I resize konqueror to be wider, I still get a bottom scrollbar for the larger page.

Asked that question myself: works for me :)

I am now using KDE 3.1.2 and I still have the problem. Whatever the width of 
konqueror, the horizontal scrollbar stays. 
 
With man:ps, I also have the problem that the window is too wide than necessary. 
There is a big blank space on the right of the page that is not used. Surprisingly, I 
don't have this problem with man:bash.

I have had this problem since I upgraded to KDE 3.1.3. When viewing a webpage, 
if the page is long enough to need a vertical scrollbar, then a horizontal one 
always appears too. It seems that the horizontal scrollbar is there to 
compensate for the width lost by drawing the vertical scrollbar, but there's 
no need for this and it's annoying! 
 
I compiled KDE from sources with gcc 3.3. I'm using QT 3.1.2.
Comment 6 Thiago Macieira 2003-08-06 03:33:30 UTC 
KDE 3.1.3 has a bug there. See #61730.

I've created a simple webpage that illustrates this bug:

your test case works fine.
