Has anyone been successful in getting Quanta (HTML editor) working?

My config is: MDK 7.2 installed from the ISO images on the web site, upgraded 
to kernel 2.4.4. I have also upgraded to KDE 2.1.1 using rpms d/l'd a few 
months ago from the various Mandrake-related mirror sites.

When I run Quanta, the help-about menu tells me I have quanta version 1.7 (a 
version, btw, I cannot find on sourceforge). According to source forge, the 
latest versiion is 2.0-prerelease 2. However, the installed rpm on my system 
seems to be quanta-2.0-1mdk (obtained via: rpm -qa | grep "quanta")

In any case, when I run quanta, it starts up just fine, However, as soon as I 
try to insert any element into the open unnamed file, it crashes with 
SIGSEGV; this of course makes it useless.

I have been using bluefish and have looked at screem, but both are obviously 
targetted at Gnome. Although they work (fortunately, so I can get some work 
done at home), I have gotten rather used to the "feel" of KDE, and don't find 
myself comfortable with the Gnome style menus and dialogs. Also, Quanta seems 
to support (as best as I can tell by surfing the menus but not actually 
creating any content due to the crashes) linking to my web site for 
uploading, etc - much more convenient that having to gFtp after every save.

Any help / tips appreciated.

Thanks.

Neal
