This is true but I think there has to be a work around for this considering I have openoffice installed but also MS Office XP with crossover and I can actually open a word doc using MS Word through konqueror and it works fine while oowriter quietly chokes.

Basically something about the file association (i think) tells KDE to put the file in /var/tmp/kdecache-<user>/... directory first before telling the app to open the file, not sure how to make openoffice or other apps do the same. Also when I exit the app (and if I've made a change) konqueror asks me if I want to Upload the changed file.

I wasn't aware that KDE actually makes a system wide navigable path, although who would think to look in /var/tmp? I know for sure that Gnome does not and that is why apps that are not part of gnome cannot see the mount point.
