[SOLVED] Which file contains konqueror browser identification?

cola · 04-19-2010, 01:58 AM

Which file contains this line:

Code:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/4.2; Linux 2.6.29.6-smp; X11; i686) KHTML/4.2.4 (like Gecko)

I want to edit this line.

Most KDE apps are tricky to manage through config files, so I couldn't tell you how to do that specifically. Probably the best and certainly easiest solution is to go to Tools --> Change Browser Identification in the Konqueror menu.

The text line, that you quote, is not from a text file on your OS.
This information is compiled into a binary.
May be more or less readable in the source code.
The text line can be read, when you e.g. open :
Konqueror > Settings > 'Browser Identification'.

You can add a "Site Specific Identification", and that info
will most certainly be written to a file in ~.kde4/share/config/
( I don't know which one.)

You can't edit/change or add something to that line from Tools-->Change Browser Identification.

There is nothing such file in /.kde/share/config to edit.
(konquerorrc)

Hi,

I agree that the menu option is probably the better way to do it. On My Fedora 12 system, Konqueror Version 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2):

Before:

Code:

#cat ~/.kde/share/config/kio_httprc
[$Version]
update_info=kioslave.upd:kde2.2/r1,kioslave.upd:kde2.2/r2

After changing in via the menu:

Code:

[$Version]
update_info=kioslave.upd:kde2.2/r1,kioslave.upd:kde2.2/r2
