Version:            (using KDE 3.5.10)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Often when I copy / move files between computers I find that Konqueror get 'stalled' and the copy / move fails in the middle. The file transfer dialog litteraly says "stuck" and no more files move. I have found this to be the case no matter which machines I am using, or which KDE versions, for a few years.

When the issue crops up, how can I determine the cause? Today I am trying to move 30+ GB from a Kubuntu 8.04 (KDE 3.5.10) laptop to a Kubuntu 8.10 (KDE 4.1) desktop. Each time I try the move gets stuck on a different file, sometimes earlier and sometime later. The issue is reproducable, and is not confined to the machines or Kubuntu versions currently in use. I can reproduce in Fedora as well, and many people on the Kubuntu mailing list have confirmed that they too have experienced frequent fish protocol stalls over the years.
