How do I change the colours of the filenames and directories in knoqueror?
I'm trying to use a very dark colour scheme for kde, and the colours of
these elements are not changing, even when I restart konqueror. This makes
them nearly unreadable.

you should ask this on a kde forum: they have mailing lists and there is
also a newsgroup, comp.windows.x.kde or something like that. aols is not
the best place for help with kde-related questions.

Ok, I found it eventually. Having this setting in Control Center, but not
under colors seems a little odd, and I couldn't find it in konqueror at
all.

Maybe he did ask, moron. In any case, there most certainly will be
konqueror users reading this group that can help him with some real
information. KDE sounds right up your alley. You could probably
help him but you won't because you feel he is in the wrong group,
right doofus?

cordially, even to anals,

I don't know Joost. I've posted some problems over there and never get
answers. In fact, I see way more questions then I *ever* see responses in
that NG.

Hmmm., maybe there is some kind of reciprocity in that being plonked over
here means you are plonked over there ? :-) <g>

I still can't figure out why with Slack 9.1 and KDE ... many times a menu
icon (both at top of screen or in task bar) does NOT hear the first click
and I have to click again. Maybe a mouse problem? Very annoying... but no
one on x.kde seems to know either (but I doubt any of them run Slack, if
indeed it is a Slack issue... which I rather doubt.)

Nobody from there has asked me to killfile you yet.

and what about the mailing lists? it's been a while since i last used KDE,
but i remember the mailing lists being good sources of information.

it could have to do with focus. perhaps try setting the focus policy to
'focus follows mouse' and see if that changes things.

IMHO this is exactly the sort of thing you should ask on a KDE forum. if
you don't get any answers on comp.windows.x.kde, then maybe the people that
know about kde do not hang out there. IME they do subscribe to the mailing
lists.

oh no, don't get me wrong. you can post anything here you like. what i was
trying to say is that on a kde forum you're likely to find more people who
know and use kde, so they can help you. it's not an issue of good or bad
behaviour, it's an issue of maximising your chance of finding the answer.

Maybe he was pointing him to somewhere where he would be more likely to
get a good answer??

Speaking as a newbie, often these sort of responses are some of the most
helpful.
