Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2016 3:23 am Post subject: Konqueror-16-12.0 crashes with WebEngine |
|
|
The new Konqueror crashes every time I load any web page.
Before it crashes it emits this error message: Code: | WebEngineContext used before QtWebEngine::initialize() or OpenGL context creation failed. |
It even crashes when I attempt to view a man page (eg. #portage).
This does not happen if select KHTML as the default Web browser engine.
Is it worth filling a bug report? |

I have the same crash
I was kind of hoping that konqueror might be revitalized as a good
browser, but maybe not _________________ .... there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth
doing as simply messing about with Linux ...
(apologies to Kenneth Graeme) |

On my system it crashes immediately when started.
I'm running ~amd64.

It is rendering webpages even slower and crappier than the previous versions.
Konqueror is only good for #manpages and ##infopages. |

Thanks, but I don't really care about konqueror, its just one of those things that make me wonder how many other (security!) issues are lurking under the surface.
Sorry I have mixed topics. |

Konqueror is only good for viewing man pages and info pages.
I'd be sorry to go back to viewing man pages from the Konsole. |
