I am always baffled why kwebkitpart never seems to work correctly for a lot of websites on some distributions, but not others. For example, the link you supplied works perfectly well on my ArchLinux box with QtWebKit 2.2. Moreover, WebKit is a lot faster for me than the default khtml engine. I wish I could identify the source for these discrepancies on different distros.

engine. So the web-browsing experience isn't too bad: it's a bit slow,
and some crashes, and some pages aren't shown at all, for example
http://ad-sinistram.blogspot.co.uk/
but fortunately we have the nice functionality of "open in another
browser" (I wish other broswers had this as well), and altogether it's alright.
