OK, I'll do some digging there. As for a workaround, beside what you suggested, about allowing Konqueror to keep running in the background or not; There is this other workaround suggested few days ago by Nuno Oliveira, consisting in calling Konqueror, eg. from command line, with an appended URL, like this: $ konqueror about:konqueror $ konqueror somePath $ konqueror someFile.pdf I tested all 3 of them, and it works as expected.
