Hi! Sorry for posting directly, but I submitted some comments on the mentioned bug report but with no answer until now. Perhaps I had to change the state of the bug report to reopen. The problem is I can not or I'm to stupid to find the right button in bugzilla. This is obviously not fixed despite the fact that there are several duplicates which are all closed by the developers. Somebody at the german kde newsgroup stated konqueror crashes if you change to a hidden directory and open a file there in. See my comments on bugs.kde.org for more details. I tried again with a KDE_1_BRANCH cvs about 2 days old. kdelibs is from today, kdebase building at the moment ... No backtrace at the moment, sorry. If you can't reproduce I'll rebuild with debug info. Please Stephan -- http://www.wormsalt.de
