Konqueror, UTF-8

2003-07-25 Thread Craig Dickson
I find that Konqueror (3.1.2-1.1, current Debian unstable) does not cope with UTF-8 web sites very well; it displays some characters well, and others not, even when Mozilla Firebird on the same machine (in the same KDE session, using the same fonts) can display them all correctly.

Odd pauses with KDE 3

2003-04-30 Thread Craig Dickson
On my only sid KDE 3 machine, I notice that the entire system seems to pause for a few seconds at a time. Launching a new Konqueror process (I have "minimize memory usage" set to "local only", so I assume starting a Konqueror web browser will start a new process) has this effect, and the KDE save f

I finally removed all of Karolina's packages and replaced them with official Sid packages, plus those in people.debian.org/~ccheney that haven't made it into Sid yet. Mostly went well, but perhaps I did not get my sources.list quite right for ~ccheney? I have the following lines: deb http://people

I haven't been able to find a NoteEdit package for KDE 3, so I tried building it from source. Unfortunately, it won't build. At first, it wouldn't even configure, complaining that its test of bison/yacc failed; I fixed that by correcting a syntax error in its yacctest.y file. Then it configured, bu

I see yet another new libpng today, 1.2.5-8. Like other people, I found that Konqueror, Kicker, and other K programs crashed with yesterday's 1.2.5-7, so I am feeling a little wary of new libpngs right now. Would someone more brave than me please try the new libpng and let the rest of us know if it
