Hi,
I'm looking for a working and maintained compressed filesystem.
I'd like to use it for backing up my root and my /usr filesystems,
so that I can use rsync to keep it up-to-date.

Hi All,
I remember that when I hovered my mouse over links in web pages on Konq 3.5,
it would show at the bottom of the window the URL that the link in question
contained. This allowed me to decide if I wanted to visit the URL or not.
With KDE4 I can't find how to activate this. Any ideas?

My laptop runs KDE4 fine without x11-base/xorg-x11 installed. Should we
