           <para>Does &krusader; need &plasma; to
           run?</para>
         </question>
         <answer>
           <para>
           <emphasis>No, &krusader; does not need the
           &plasma; window manager</emphasis> to run on your
           computer but &krusader;'s natural environment
           is &plasma;, because it relies on services
           provided by the &kf5-full; base libraries. Only
           some shared libraries are needed &eg;
           &kde-frameworks; libraries, &Qt; libraries,
           &etc; This means that &krusader;
           runs on <ulink url="https://www.gnome.org"><application>GNOME</application></ulink>,
           <ulink url="http://www.afterstep.org/"><application>AfterStep</application></ulink>, <ulink url="https://www.xfce.org/"><application>XFce</application></ulink> and
           other window managers provided the appropriate libraries
           are installed on your computer. All this is not a problem
           since the apt-get world can resolve these dependencies
           instantly.</para>
           <para></para>
           <!-- Empty line to make it more readable -->
           <para>You do not need to switch to the &plasma;
           window manager to use &krusader;; you can
           still use <ulink url="https://www.gnome.org"><application>GNOME</application></ulink>,
           <ulink url="http://www.afterstep.org/"><application>AfterStep</application></ulink>, <ulink url="https://www.xfce.org/"><application>XFce</application></ulink> or
           another window manager. However, the configuration of the
           &krusader; fonts and some behavior is done by
           running 
           <command>systemsettings</command>.</para>
           <para></para>
           <!-- Empty line to make it more readable -->
           <para>A lot depends on what you want to do with
           &krusader;. You should know that
           &krusader; uses the &kde-frameworks;
           KIO Slaves to access remote file
           systems, and support for only a limited number of file
           system types are shipped with &kde-frameworks; libraries,
           most of the KIO Slave are bundled with
           &kf5-full; (including fish, sftp and tar).</para>
           <para></para>
           <!-- Empty line to make it more readable -->
           <para>To summarize, if you want a working
           &krusader; - install &kf5-full;. If
           you want a functional &krusader; then you need
           &kf5-full; and some additional &plasma; packages. For maximum
           functionality, &krusader; needs some &kde; Applications
           (&ark;, &kdiff3;, <application>KRename</application>), but the
           &plasma; window manager is optional.</para>

           <para>Because we only change the version number just

           will show an older version number, so ignore the version
           number and check the download date. We simply have not yet

         <question id="faqu_dead_mountpoint">
           <para>Why does &krusader; freeze or hang on a
           dead mountpoint?</para>
         </question>
         <answer>
           <para>When &krusader; is &eg;
           browsing an &NFS; share and the &NFS; server goes down,
           &krusader; will freeze. This
           &krusader; (and all other open internal
           viewers/editors) freeze is fatal, and can only be
           corrected with the 
           <command>kill -9</command>. We have no solution for this.
           This is an issue not confined to file managers, or even
           the &Linux; OS! The problem is that you <quote>hang</quote>
           on the first access to the dead share - so there is no
           way around it, no check to avoid it, even 
           <command>ls</command> will freeze. Just trying to read
           something - anything - is enough to get you stuck. The
           one and only way around this architectural problem is
           using a multi-threaded design - this way if we get stuck,
           we do not hang the entire application event loop, but we
           do not think that the time is right for adding threads, we
           are not sure that *all* the &kde-frameworks; systems out
           there are using &Qt;-mt (the multi threaded
           version of the &Qt; library), and the &krusader;
           Krew may not be the right people to address this major
           issue in any case; so currently this is just a bug we
           have to learn to live with.</para>

         <question id="faqu_resize">
           <para>When I try to resize &krusader; to make
           it smaller, I discover that I cannot resize it below a
           certain size. Why?</para>
         </question>
         <answer>
           <para>See the 
           <guibutton>F1, F2</guibutton> (&etc;) buttons?
           They are not allowing &krusader; to downsize
           as they have a minimum size. Just disable them 
             <menuchoice>
               <guimenu>Settings</guimenu>
               <guimenuitem>Show FN Keys Bar</guimenuitem>
             </menuchoice>
           and you will be able to resize
           &krusader; to your liking. Since version 1.51
           we have improved this greatly: when downsizing the
           buttons will look like 'F5 ..py'. When the button faces
           are too small to read a tooltip will give the complete
           text. The minimum width is 45 pixels for each
           button.</para>

   <para>&krusader; uses several programs as <link linkend="konfig-dependencies">external tools</link>, 
         and sometimes they appear not to work.
         
        Open a terminal and check if tool foo is installed.

        Check if tool foo is properly configured in the <link linkend="konfig-dependencies">Konfigurator Dependencies page</link>.
 
        For Archiving tools: autodetect the archives again with the <guibutton>Auto Configure</guibutton> button
        in the <link linkend="konfig-archives">Konfigurator archive page</link>. 
        
        Check the <link linkend="konfig-protocols">Konfigurator Protocol page</link>
    
        If it does not work, backup your <filename><envar>XDG_CONFIG_HOME</envar>/krusaderrc</filename> (default is <filename>$<envar>HOME</envar>/.config/krusaderc</filename>) configuration file and remove it from this location.
      Restart &krusader;, &krusader; will now start the first start configuration wizard, follow these guidelines.

         </question>
         <answer>
           <para>This problem often occurs when you are behind a
           firewall or proxy. Open

           Now try your &FTP; session again to see if it
           works. Also, make sure you have no other &FTP;
           sessions open (using web browsers, &etc;), they can cause

           <para>How do not add <literal role="extension">.part</literal> suffix when copying files via &FTP;?</para>
         </question>
         <answer>
           <para>When uploading files a <literal role="extension">.part</literal> suffix is added to the filename,
                 once the upload is complete the filename is renamed automagically 
                 to remove the <literal role="extension">.part</literal> suffix.

   <question id="faqg_valgrint">
   <para>How can i send good debug or crash reports?</para>
   </question>
   <answer>
   <para>Usually binary packages that are been used by your distribution do not contain debug information.
         Since we usually only develop and fix &krusader;-git, compile &krusader;-git in debugmode and install it, than check if the bug still exist.
         <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>cmake</command> <option>-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull</option></userinput></screen>  
 
         Install <ulink url="https://valgrind.org">valgrind</ulink>, a suite of tools for debugging and profiling &Linux; programs.
 
         Run Valgrind/&krusader;
         <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>valgrind</command> <option>--tool=memcheck</option> <replaceable>{foo_path}/krusader</replaceable></userinput></screen>
         
         The valgrind tool will write to stdout, what really happens.
         If you could send these information before the crash, it is almost sure, that we may fix or tell you what to do.

   <question id="faqg_crashhandler">
   <para>What to do if the KDEcrashhandler sends no useful backtrace information?</para>
   </question>
   <answer>
   <para>Usually binary packages that are been used by your distribution do not contain debug information.
         Since we usually only develop and fix &krusader;-git, compile &krusader;-git in debugmode and install it, than check if the bug still exist.
         <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>cmake</command> <option>-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull</option></userinput></screen> 
  
        If the KDEKrashhandler still does not provide useful backtrace information, than sometimes a coredump will give better information. 
        Run Krusader, with disabled crashhandler.
        <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>krusader</command> <option>--nocrashhandler</option></userinput></screen>
 
        On a crash you will get a <filename>.core</filename> file, usually in your home folder.
 
        Run <ulink url="https://sourceware.org/gdb/">gdb</ulink>, the GNU Project Debugger
        
        <screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>gdb</command> <option>-c</option> <replaceable>corefile krusader</replaceable></userinput></screen>
        
        Now type <command>bt</command> to get the backtrace and type <command>q</command> to quit gdb.
 
        Often the best debug results will be given when using the valgrind tool.

           <para>In the spirit of freedom of speech, everything that
           is &krusader; related can be discussed in our
           forum. It does not matter if you are a newcomer or an
           advanced user, everyone is welcome. An open source
           project's greatest strength is derived from getting user
           feedback. That is why we love to hear what you have to
           say. With your feedback we can make &krusader;
           better and better; otherwise, we are not aware of issues
           and ideas you may have. But please remember the
           following, so that we can maintain some order in the
           chaos.</para>

           has already been discussed in the past there is a great
           chance that you will have an instant solution to your
