Comment on Solved: Miro won’t start – missing video directory by Fabio

You should be very careful with deleting anything called “sqlitedb” as this is a datastorage. In Miro’s case this most definitely holds all your subscriptions!

If you have got Java installed as a plugin in your browser and you are using a Mac or a PC Screenr might be an alternative for you. It did not work for me on Linux tough.

Another minor syntax bit– the correct format (at least in Centos5) for ~/.kde/share/config/kio_httprc:

It got even easier with KDE4 and the newest Konqueror. There is now a graphical menu entry you can use to send custom user agent strings to selected websites. Just go into Settings -> Set up Konqueror -> Surf the web -> Browser identification -> Site / domain specific setting -> Add.

The naming of the menu entries will differ as I just translated it from German. I hope you find it anyway.
