When I click on a column header to sort the items by this column nothing happens. Right click works fine (I can see the list of columns to hide/unhide them). I think it may be a Qt problem as several KDE applications fail (kmail, akregator, systemsettings, etc). Nevertheless some KDE apps works fine (konqueror, dolphin, etc.) Versions used: suso@asrock ~ $ ls -ld /var/db/pkg/x11-libs/qt* drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2010-01-06 22:36

Is the problem still present with kde-4.3.5 and current qt?
Yes, the problem is still here with KDE-4.3.5 and qt-4.6.2
How about kde 4.4.4 (current stable candidate)?

Chicken and egg problem here... resolving for now as NEEDINFO. Please reopen if the problem reoccurs with more recent kde versions.

(In reply to comment #5) > Chicken and egg problem here... resolving for now as NEEDINFO. Please reopen if > the problem reoccurs with more recent kde versions. (In reply to comment #4) Even worse in KDE-4.4.4: I cannot sort in ANY KDE application (in KDE-4.3.5 I was able to sort-by-column in some apps, like konqueror, dolphin, etc.).
Tried with QT-4.6.3, but problem remains. (Changed summary accordingly)
I just tried to reproduce this in Konqueror 4.4.4 (x11-libs/qt-gui-4.6.2) and sometimes it did not react to a click on the column header. But by clicking repeadtedly I it would always work eventually.

Sorting always worked here. Have your tried to reproduce in new clean account? Maybe your ~/.kde4 config dir is broken (KDE tends to break its config files occasionally, especially on KDE version updates)
I've discovered my problem: I always use VNC (x11vnc) to access my box from my laptop because the monitor broke years ago and I didn't want to buy a new one (not needed as I hardly used it). Today I had to connect a borrowed one (boot problem because of corruption in the boot partition) and after solving the booting problem I tested the system and I discovered that I can sort-by-column clicking on the header with the hardware mouse. So the problem is not in KDE or Qt, but in x11vnc (or the interactions of them). I couldn't imagine it because the VNC mouse click works fine everywhere except in this Qt table headers. I'm closing this bug as invalid and will open a new one for x11vnc. Sorry for the noise.
