It's a word play on the other browsers' names. After the Navigator and the Explorer comes the Conqueror.

Yes. Install Qt, tdelibs, and tdebase. From your window manager launch Konqueror. It should work just fine, but if it doesn't (TDE developers don't often test that use case), report the problem to http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/. Before reporting a bug, try running "tdeinit" before running Konqueror. This is of course the same for any other TDE application running in a non TDE setup.

There is no standard that states the ALT attribute should appear as a tooltip. The specification calls for ALT to be displayed in place of the image, as in text-mode only browsers such at lynx or w3m. Abusing the ALT attribute is bad for accessibility. Tooltips are supposed to come from the TITLE attribute and this is implemented in Konqueror.

Konqueror can be used with HTTP and FTP proxies. To set up the proxy server in Konqueror, select Settings->Configure Konqueror... from the Konqueror menu and select the Proxy option.

To import bookmarks from another browser into Konqueror, from the menu bar select Bookmarks, then select Edit Bookmarks. In the Bookmark Editor, select File then select Import. Select the browser from which you would like to import bookmarks. In the Open dialog, navigate to the location of the folder or file your bookmarks are located.

In Konqueror select Settings->Configure Konqueror.... Then select Web Behaviour from the icon list. Under the Bookmarks heading, place a check in the box next to Show only marked bookmarks in bookmark toolbar.

In the Bookmark Editor an option to Show in Toolbar appears on clicking with the right mouse button on any bookmark entry or in the Edit menu when the entry is highlighted. Folders can also be shown in the bookmarks toolbar in much the same way.

That is called setting the user agent. In Konqueror, select Settings->Configure Konqueror.... In the icon list, select Browser Identification. Default and site-specific browser identifications can be set there.

Quite often Konqueror loading web pages slowly is caused by DNS servers with broken IPV6 support. Adding the following to /etc/profile or any other script that is sourced on login should solve this problem:

export TDE_NO_IPV6=true

setenv TDE_NO_IPV6 true

From Konqueror's menubar choose Settings->Configure Konqueror.... From the icon list select Java & Javascript. Set the Path to Java executable.

Konqueror provides a 'smart' policy for JavaScript popups. From the Konqueror main window, selectSettings->Configure Konqueror.... Then Java & JavaScript. On the JavaScript tab, under Global JavaScript Policies, set the radio button beside Open new windows: to Smart.

Make sure you have Javascript enabled, and the default JavaScript web popups policy set to Ask or Allow. The Smart policy is not always sufficient for some banks. Many banks also require Java support.

Yes, you can set Konqueror to use any kind of valid css stylesheet to filter webcontent or improve accessibility. From the Konqueror main window simply click Settings->Configure Konqueror... and select Stylesheets. Set the radio button to Use user-defined stylesheet and browse to where the stylesheet you want to use is located. Alternately, select Use accessibility stylesheet defined in "Customize" tab and then set your own options.

Under the latest versions of X.org, having the composite extension loaded can cause problems with the flash plugin. Try disabling the composite extension and see whether normal flash operation is restored.

Make sure the embedding settings for the text/html MIME type are correct:

1. In Konqueror, go to Settings->Configure Konqueror.... In the icon list select File Associations.

2. Open text->html in the tree view.

3. Click on the Embedding tab. Make sure that Left Click Action is set to Show file in embedded viewer, and that TDEHTML (tdehtml) is at the top of Services Preference Order.
