The ability to render SVG files in Konqueror depends on the rendering engine. With WebKit enabled our testing SVG was rendered correctly. However, Konqueror’s default rendering engine, KHTML, appears to be lacking support of several features: filter effects are not applied to underlying object and stroke end markers, and text along path or pattern objects aren’t rendered at all. So you will need to figure out how to turn on WebKit which may not have been compiled in for that version.

In Firefox, if you type about:config in the search bar, you'll see several options starting with svg.

[CentOS] konqueror vs. centos and mathematics
I'm running centos 7. Firefox spends so much time in th D state that I am trying konqueror. Displaying mathematics on wikipedia, e.g. Remez algorithm seems to be a no go. Wikipedia seems to use tex, so I installed texlive and texlive-* . Firefox hadn't needed it and it did not seem to help konqueror. My guess is that there is a bit somewhere that I need to flip, but I have no idea where it is.
