<question><para>Can I run &konqueror; from another window manager?</para></question>
|
|
|
|
<answer><para>Just install &Qt;, tdelibs and tdebase, and from your favourite window manager, launch &konqueror;. It should work just fine, but if it doesn't (&kde; developers don't test that case often), report it to <ulink url="http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org">http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org</ulink> and try running <application>tdeinit</application> before running &konqueror;, it usually helps.</para></answer>

<question><para>How do I set my <quote>home</quote> page - the page loaded on startup?</para></question>
|
|
<answer><para>Start &konqueror; with the <guiicon>Web Browser</guiicon> icon on the panel. Open the page you want to be loaded in any new <quote>Web Browser</quote> window and select <guimenuitem>Save View Profile "Web Browsing"</guimenuitem> from the <guimenu>Settings</guimenu> menu.</para>
|
|
|

<para>All new &konqueror; windows that are started with the <guiicon>Web Browser</guiicon> icon on the panel, or from the <guimenu>location</guimenu> menu, and new empty tabs, will now start at this page.</para>

|
|
|
<note><para>This does not change the behaviour of the <guiicon>Home</guiicon> button on the &konqueror; toolbar, which will continue to take you to the &URI; defined in the &konqueror; configuration module. You can reach that module from within &konqueror;, via <menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu><guimenuitem>Configure Konqueror</guimenuitem><guilabel>Behaviour</guilabel></menuchoice>. By default this is set to <userinput>~</userinput>, which is your Home folder. You may set this to any &URI;, either local or remote, and pressing the <guiicon>Home</guiicon> icon on the toolbar will display it.</para></note>

<para>To have &konqueror; start up with no page loaded, use <userinput>about:blank</userinput>.</para>
