Konqueror cant use smb:/ protocol
Hey kde forum
I have a newly installed gentoo 2.6.13-r5 system.
I started emerge kde, when gentoo was finished installed. So i got now kde 3,4 installed.
I have another pc with windows xp, and I want the linux pc to browse the win pc with konqueror. So I installed samba with "emerge samba"
BUT?
When i type smb:/ in konqueror, the following message appear:
"protocol not supported smb"
Way can that be? Is it because i installed samba after kde?
Thx for your time.

RE: Konqueror cant use smb:/ protocol
That is quite likely.
The KDE IO slave handling the smb protocol uses the client library of Samba, libsmbclient
If it wasn't present when you compiled KDE, it wasn't included because of the missing dependency

Thx for you answer. But is there a way to recompile kde with that function without recompiling whole kde. Because it took my old 800 mhz pentium III 36 hours compiling kde.
I had the same problem, and after reading this thread, I solved it (thx for the tips).
You only have to recompile the kioslaves:
emerge kdebase-kioslaves
Took 15 minutes on my 2GHz P4. No need to restart KDE or X.
