I can now get konqueror to run without crashing by: cd ~/.kde/share/mimelnk/application rm octet-stream.desktop
Wish me luck, I will reboot and hope to get by desktop back! Maybe KDE is just waiting for me to close those 20 error popup windows that say "Could not find mime type application/octet-stream" before it will show the desktop icons and toolbars? $ konqueror kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::initPrivate(): trying to assign a shortcut (Alt+Plus) to an unnamed action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::initPrivate(): trying to assign a shortcut (Alt+Minus) to an unnamed action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::initPrivate(): trying to assign a shortcut (Alt+Plus) to an unnamed action. kdecore (KAction): WARNING: KAction::initPrivate(): trying to assign a shortcut (Alt+Minus) to an unnamed action. konqueror: ERROR: Error in BrowserExtension::actionSlotMap(), unknown action : searchProvider konqueror: ERROR: Error in BrowserExtension::actionSlotMap(), unknown action : searchProvider konqueror: ERROR: Error in BrowserExtension::actionSlotMap(), unknown action : searchProvider --- On Wed 10/05, J F < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > wrote: From: J F [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2005 11:26:54 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Desktop icons, bottom bar to switch desktops is gone from KDE <br>Yesterday, I added the pattern *.ASP to to the applications that<br>should be opened by the embedded html viewer inside konqueror.<br>Maybe this caused my problem, maybe it did not.<br>Then I shutdown for the evening.<br><br>Today, my desktop is a blank blue except that for 20<br>(one for each of my 20 Konqueror windows)<br>or so little error windows that say:<br>Could not find mime type application/octet-stream<br><br>I click OK to kill the error notification box and another <br>window immediately pops up to say:<br>Konqueror - The KDE Crash Handler (window title)<br>The application Konqueror (konqueror) crashed and caused the<br>signal 11 (SIGSEGV).<br><br>Then I type konqueror in a shell and <br>I get the same pop up window and crash.<br>------------------------------------------<br>What debian package is the html embedded viewer inside of?<br>Looks like I will have to delete it and reinstall.<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com<br>The most personalized portal on the Web!<br><br><br><br>-- <br>To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] <br>with a subject of "unsubscribe".
