Well, I noticed after the recent upgrade to 4.5.1 that mine doesn't work |
| 20 |
either. It worked before but not now. I'm not sure what changed |
| 21 |
between 4.4 and 4.5.1 but it broke my konqueror as root and other |
| 22 |
programs as well. Still have some I haven't tried tho. Konqueror is |
| 23 |
the one I need most. Oh, I can get Dolphin to work tho. The conspiracy |
| 24 |
theory part in me is starting to think. |

Sure would like to get this working again too. |
