Hi!

I have heard of these problems before and suffered from it myself (when
I change
networks and ifdown/ifup with DHCP while running KDE). It's a bit tricky
though :(

Greetings, Stephan

Package: kmail
Version: KDE 2.0.1 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: 2.4.0

There have been a few reports of konqi not being able to talk to
klauncher. This happens, when the hostname changes between KDE startup
and an action in kmail/konqi (like requesting an url). With a dialup
internet connection, it is sometimes necessary to configure the hostname
(kppp has such an option) from the dialup-provider.

My mailprovider does not accept mails on his smtp-server, if he cannot
identify my hostname - so I must allow kppp to reconfigure it. But then
kmail and konqi are unusable.

In fact, once the hostname has changed, there is no chance to start any
programs from the panel (starting them from the commandline still
works).
