Seems as if rating of new pages does not work. I answer all the questions in the pop-ups (last one is language) and then nothing. No feedback? No new entry?

It seems like StumbleUpon may have changed the protocol in some way. Unfortunately I haven't had much of a chance to look into the details of this. If somebody manages to find a fix though, I'll be more than happy to commit it to SVN.

Installed version 0.1 and it works 'out of the box'.
Good one!
I downloaded version 0.2 and can't extract it. I get an Ark error box
gzip:stdin:not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

I'm using Kubuntu 7.10, KDE 3.5.8

Not really a problem as version 0.1 works.

Sorry, that's my fault. It seems I forgot to gzip the archive. Try removing the '.gz' from the filename and see if that works.

Whenever I try to stumble I get the error:

Quote:Unknown Konqueror version ".

What version of Konqueror are you actually using?

Could you post the output of "konqueror --version"? (Unless you're using a konqueror which isn't the first in your PATH, in that case replace konqueror to the location of the binary)

Quote:$ konqueror --version
Qt: 3.3.8
KDE: 3.5.7 "release 72.6"
Konqueror: 3.5.7

Just wanted to say I have the same problem:

konqueror --version
Qt: 3.3.8b
KDE: 3.5.9
Konqueror: 3.5.9

/proc/$PPID/exe is a symlink to /usr/bin/kdeinit - and calling "/proc/$PPID/exe --version" leads to: "kdeinit: Shutting down running client." Using Debian.

This should now be fixed in SVN. Follow the instructions on the project homepage to checkout the code.

Strange, I don't see why that isn't working. For the moment you can change line 11 (KONQ_VER=...) in /usr/bin/kstumble to:
KONQ_VER=3
At some stage I'll try to add a more robust solution to determining the Konqueror version.

First off thanks for the workaround, it works great now (though I needed to install the libwww perl module first).

In regards to line 11:
/proc/{konq's PID}/exe is a symlink to /opt/kde/bin/kdeinit and not konq (don't know if that's normal). Either way, the output of "/proc/{konq's PID}/exe --version" doesn't have a single line containing the string konqueror. I guess that explains why KONQ_VER is empty.

Fantastic

Thanks, I added this to the list of requirements.

Thanks for the info. It works fine on my system, but I guess other distros work differently. Hopefully the next release will remove the dependencies on /proc/*, whenever I get a chance to attend to this.

Quote:Hmm, the normal method works for me. What distribution are you using? Can you tell me the output of `kde-config --prefix`?

kalle@hoppers:~> kde-config --prefix
/opt/kde3

openSUSE has different kde-paths from most other distros, that might be the reason I guess. That will be changed with KDE4, though.

KStumble still works fine over here!

That issue should be fixed in the svn now - I've updated the Makefile so that it installs to the path indicated by kde-config --prefix. Good to hear everything else is working :)

It needs Digest-SHA1 perl module to run (emerge Digest-SHA1 on gentoo).

But it seems to ignore my proxy settings so I can't login. It is specified by the env variables http_proxy https_proxy & no_proxy.
Too bad as it seems quite standard : all KDE, firefox and wget for example seems to support it.

I've added the Digest::SHA1 requirement to the homepage, thanks for the suggestion.

The svn version should now load proxy settings from the environment. Could you please checkout the code (svn co http://stumble.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ stumble) and let me know if this works for you?

Okay, thanks for the lil' tutorial - but what made me miss the functions of KStumble was this: kstumble.desktop is copied to /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus, though it has to be copied to ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus, at least that's how it works for me.

Stumbling, rating, logging in etc. works well. Still: are there any chances for a decent SU-Toolbar in Konqueror?

Nice work!

Most likely not. Creating a toolbar involves getting into creating libraries for konqueror etc. which unfortunately is a lot more effort than I'm prepared to exert. However, if anybody manages to create a toolbar based on the Stumble backend, I'll gladly include it in the project.

Thankyou :)

Installs perfectly, but I don't see any changes after installing. How do we use this? KStumble defenitely needs some kind of documentation.

Still a good idea, though. I'd love to use SU with Konqueror as well.

I've added a wiki page about using KStumble - http://code.google.com/p/stumble/wiki/KStumbleUsage
