Hey,<br><br>I did try working with the site in Konqueror 4.2. Here's one data point:<br><br>Able to read and create PDF for Inkscape manual.<br><br>Registered on the site and edited my User Page with no difficulty.<br>
<br>Was unable to use Remix. No specific errors (permission or otherwise), but would get a black box when using the dropdown menu to select a manual to remix. On subsequent tries, could generate a visible menu, but chapters did not appear, much less drag-n-drop.<br>
<br>Couldn't generate any permissions errors, though. Any theories about causes would depend on when and where you got the error. Wait...Let me take some of that back: I do recall that in some Konqi versions, if it saw just plain text on a page, it would load the default text editor (KWrite or whatever was selected as the default) in the browser window. That might explain a permission error when you tried to save edits. This is a setting in Konqueror 3.x. Again, no problem in 4.2 as far as I can tell.<br>
