The gtk-qt4-engine stuff constantly produces high CPU usage after I close firefox. At least it does not crash or freeze. Also, I don't see any changes in fonts at all, and in the GUI when I already have enabled a KDE theme in firefox. When I enable the FlashGot plugin there is also a constant very high CPU usage after startup. And for the printing I can't find kprinter in KDE 4.3.5. For now, I will just use a KDE theme in firefox and enable the KDE file chooser dialog ... ;-( Thanks for the help, Anselm ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

That's easy. From your KDE menu, open "System Settings" (in the first tab, "favorites") Then select "Default Applications". Then, in the left list of the applications, choose "Web browser", and at the right part of the screen choose the radio button "in the following browser" and in the edit box enter the "/usr/local/bin/firefox3". Then apply the new settings. Elias Another trick that PC-BSD useswhich might be more of what you are asking about is the installation of a port called x11-themes/gtk-qt4-engine This port allows gtk applications to be displayed using qt, which helps integrate the look of things like FF, Thunderbird, OOo with KDE. I already installed the gtk-qt4-engine, but it has some serious bugs. Scroll bars are not painted, tab borders are painted at the wrong position, etc. Could this be because I modified some of KDEs appearance options? The gtk-qt4-engine works great here, not run into those problems you describe. Check the gtk-qt4-engine configuration gui in KDE4's system settings though, there is a fix you can enable to fix scrollbar issues. Are there any other integration tweaks, like icons, keyboard shortcuts, file chooser dialog, ... ? We've not modified anything else like that, just standard stuff.

You have some preferences in the setup pannel for the engine, did you try to change things? I've used gtk-qt4-engine without these problems. Anyway, firefox does not terminate when I use gtk-qt4-engine. There is stil a firefox-bin process. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Hi, I noticed that in PC-BSD 8 firefox is nicely integrated into KDE. Anybody knows how to achieve this on FreeBSD 8?
