|
|
I am a heavy user of KDE activies, however Konqueror is a mess...
I was wondering which other browser (if any) support KDE activities (e.g. restore browser sessions when starting an activity).
I put everything I know of here:
http://linux.overshoot.tv/wiki/kde_activities
What browser do you use with Activities? |

Of course, this question wouldn't be necessary if konqueror were not so broken. It really is a shame. So many web sites crash or do not render properly in konqueror. I think the real solution would be to revive konqueror. I could contribute a little, although I do not have the technical knowledge nor the time resources to do much, if anything, on my own. |

Another problem I have with activities, is that I use konsole *a lot*, and whenever konsole crashes or is killed for any reason, all the saved konsole sessions in closed activities are lost. Yakuake is not aware of activities at all. |

Moved from Gentoo Chat to Desktop Environments as it fits better there.

Other things that I use extensively in konqueror and for which I have not found an equivalent in other browsers:
- web shortcuts: e.g. I can type "wp Charity" in my desktop (krunner) and automatically open wikipedia on the "Charity" page within konqueror.
- "Open with..." dialogs. |
