KDE 3.1 Released...

<< < (3/3)

solo:
yeah i agree they should definitely test more.

but i love kde. kde loved me when no other desktop system would. it scratches my back and I dont really have to scratch it's back in return. is it illegal to sleep with a set of 1s and 0s?

lol

The new KDE looks great.  Do you know if the Konqueror that comes w/ it has the new KHTML engine that the Safari project improved upon.  That would definitely be a plus!

ahh, i dont think so, or at least i dont notice a big difference but idk

solo:
more bugs anyone?

-kmozilla doesnt work at all
-pictures always have a title of 0x0 Pixel Image (no sizes), sometimes you need to click refresh to get them to appear (this is in konqueror)
-not a bug but theres no place to make a new tab if -you dont have multiple tabs open
-audiocd kioslave doesnt have mp3 export support (wtf??) only ogg and cda
-the kmix dock icon doesnt show the volume slider until you click it twice, from then on until another component gets focus you can single click it to toggle

theres probably more but i cant think of any

on a better note they finally fixed the keyword search stuff in konqueror, no more 404 because of that one keyword company that went out of business cuz microsoft dropped its contract (hehe)

thank god they included keramik with the release, i can never seem to get it to compile right and apparently for a long time it had a bug that made it segfault every time you closed a window (ouch)

Calum:
'kmozilla'? that's a bit rich.

kde has a lot more features than other desktops, but i ask myself, are they necessary? even though i use kde (3.0) on my serious computer, i still realise that the only reason for that is that GNOME is not yet stable enough to run on this computer for some reason. GNOME 2 seems to run fine on my other (nonserious) computer however and i can seriously say i prefer working with GNOME a lot better than i like KDE. just a personal preference, i know, but i think that if KDE was better bugfixed and if it modelled itself on GNOME  instead of on windows (which it will never do, KDE is too proud, and not only that, it's older than GNOME) then it would be a lot better.

solo:
kmozilla is a kde binding of gecko, idk if its in kde 3.0 but its under View -> View Mode. Very useful if some site uses some code that doesnt work in konq but works in mozilla. However, its pretty useless if all that happens when i enable it is the status bar moving to the middle of the window...
