That was the coolest web browser I ever seen. And I want it back. The ability to load multiple tabs and then save that as a profile was way cool. Each time I loaded Konqueror all my favorite webpages would load. My Yahoo Mail, This Forum, My Home Directory, and more were just a tab click away. This Fiesty Browser loads in a minimalistic way with barely enough buttons to surf the web. I even had to manually put in the Bookmarks button!

Feisty still has konqueror as the default browser and file manager :P
Originally posted by lotechI am not familiar with Konqueror and my favorite is Firefox, it can do similar things you like, it has multiple tabs as well I think they first invented it.

You can get the vanilla konqueror back (with view profile management etc.)
I've edited my rc files by hand, but you might wish to try this first (written for breezy/dapper so I'm not sure if it's still valid):http://www.kubuntu.org/faq.php#konqueror
I also remember a few quick howtos for konqueror-dekubuntufication in the forums, try searching as well.
Of course back-up before making changes.
In case you need the tip, here is one of the edits on my konqueror.rc (this should put view profile saving back to the settings menu):
<Menu noMerge="1" name="settings" >
<text>&Settings</text>
<Action name="options_show_menubar" />
<Merge name="StandardToolBarMenuHandler" />
<Separator/>
<Action name="fullscreen" />
<Separator/>
<Action name="saveViewPropertiesLocally" />
<Action name="removeLocalProperties" />
<Separator/>
<Action name="loadviewprofile" />
<Action name="saveviewprofile" />
<Action name="saveremoveviewprofile" />
<Separator/>
<Action name="options_configure_extensions" />
<Action name="configurespellcheck" />
<Action name="options_configure_keybinding" />
<Action name="options_configure_toolbars" />
<Action name="options_configure" />
</Menu>

Just curious why would you want a Bookmarks button? Have you somehow removed the Menu 'toolbar'?

Re: I fell in love with Edy's Konqueror
My Konqueror loads the five tabs I saved as URLs within the web browsing profile And if I load other pages getting them back is just a click or two away, Settings->Load View Profile->Web Browsing
Just curious why would you want a Bookmarks button? Have you somehow removed the Menu 'toolbar'?
EDIT: This just in. I don't have a menu bar on my Konsole either. What gives?Registered Linux User: 450747<br />Registered Ubuntu User: 16269

Try pressing Ctrl+M to get your menu bar back on apps where they are missing. (Ctrl+M shows/hides the menu bar)

Re: I fell in love with Edy's Konqueror
Well...that worked. Why were they gone? And will this put the menu back permanently? Now I can continue my romance with Konqueror!Registered Linux User: 450747<br />Registered Ubuntu User: 16269

Re: I fell in love with Edy's Konqueror
It's only permanent until the next time you press Ctrl+M again.
As to why they disappeared, I have no clue. They certainly weren't removed/hidden by default on Feisty.
