everything works in facebook flawless, except that konqueror-4.11.2 and qupzilla-1.4.4 with the dev-qt/qtwebkit-4.8.5 engine arent able to connect to facebooks own chatsystem. for a small part of a second i see who is online and whos not and then everything greys out and the chatpanel says something like "there is a problem connecting to the facebookchat, please try again later." Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.login to your facebook account while using recent konqueror or qupzilla browsers 2.try out the chat system with these browsers 3. Actual Results: you cant connect to facebooks chat system... see description Expected Results: normal operation ...
Probably fixed with standalone-webkit (as many, many other issues): https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=388207
What indicates that this is due to qtwebkit? Have you tried downgrading it? Can you look into the network traffic (in browser or wireshark) at what happens?
(In reply to Tom Wijsman (TomWij) from comment #2) > What indicates that this is due to qtwebkit? Have you tried downgrading it? qt-webkit-4.8.* do not really get updates. There are so many crashes, weird behavior, etc. that get fixed by either using qtwebkit-2.3 or Qt5. Btw: Here is a link to a similar bugreport from Qupzilla: https://github.com/QupZilla/qupzilla/issues/448 There MIGHT be a chance to fix this by changing the user agent. Look into the duplicate bug (867) there are commits, you might want to try using that User agent for facebook. I do not have a facebook account, I also won't register, so I can't confirm or track down anything.
I'm marking this as a duplicate of 388207, although technically it's not. We should really switch to qtwebkit-2.3... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 388207 ***
