Thank you Alan, I just re-installed konq-plugins and then kdebase-kioslaves to |
| 64 |
see what happens. Konqueror no longer opens dolphin in a separate window, nor |
| 65 |
does it open dolphin embedded in it as I want it. Instead it opens FSView - |
| 66 |
showing colourful rectangles of sizes proportionate to the size of each file. |
| 67 |
Looking under Konqueror's menu/View/View Mode, I only have 'File Size View' |
| 68 |
available. So I must be missing something else on this box. |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
I'm on stable versions: |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
kde-apps/konqueror-15.12.3 |
| 73 |
kde-apps/dolphin-15.12.3-r1 |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
Interestingly, the introductory page of Konqueror shows no images for the |
| 76 |
icons ... just empty placeholders. Also, I just noticed something weird ... |
| 77 |
menu/Help/About Konqueror shows "Version 4.14.16" instead of 15.12.3. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
Oh well, I am assuming KDE will get better over time. O_o |
