Description Kasper Dupont 2003-07-04 23:57:37 UTC
Description of problem:
On the page http://www.eksperten.dk/spm/372846 konqueror looped without updating
the window or reacting to user input. Using strace revealed that it was
constantly calling sched_yield() and after each 50 calls performed a single call
of nanosleep({0, 2000001}, NULL).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kdebase-3.1-13

How reproducible:
I tried but was unable to reproduce the problem.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the page from a
http://www.computerworld.dk/default.asp?Mode=2&ArticleID=19716
2. Follow a few links to end up on the page http://www.eksperten.dk/spm/372846
3. Try to scroll down.
    
Actual results:
Konqueror stops responding.

Expected results:
In the normal case a warning about a script will pop up within two seconds.
Aborting the script will get konqueror responding again.

Please retry with current version of Fedora Core. Unless you followup on this 
bug, it will be considered fixed and will be closed at some point... Thank you 
for your time.

Red Hat Linux 7.3 and Red Hat Linux 9 are no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc.
f you are currently still running Red Hat Linux 7.3 or 9, you are strongly
advised to upgrade to a current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux
or comparable. Some information on which option may be right for you is
available at http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/.

Closing as CANTFIX.
