Kate doesn't recognize file types

http://forums.opensuse.org – Hello everyone, I'm having trouble with the Kate text editor. Last year I was running Kubuntu and Kate would recognize file types and open in the appropriate mode. For example, if in the terminal I typed: kate script.cpp Kate would open with c++ highlighting and indenting. On OpenSUSE however, this doesn't happen. Kate opens in normal mode when I type the above command. Does anyone know how I can get Kate to recognize the .cpp suffix and open in the correct mode? Any help is appreciated. (Distributions)

On one of my systems kate and kwrite had been uninstalled with yast.

After a zypper up , followed by a reinstall of kate, kate is crashing immediatetly with segmentation fault.

Are there any 'hooks' in kde4 kate needs to run , which somehow may have vanished ?

How can this be fixed.

Thanks Db

Hello

My klipper doesn't allow me to copy text from one program to another. For example if I want to copy a url across from my browser into kate, I copy the text out of the url, then I right click and paste into kate and instead of pasting the url into kate the last thing I copied in kate is then repasted into kate.

Any help in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Kate does not save settings 3 years 27 weeks ago

KDE 4.3.4 Kate

Settings changed in Kate Settings -Configure are not permanent. While they seem to be written into katerc they are not read back on restart and katerc is somehow overwitten with the default settings.

This is a pain as I use many of the plugins and other custom settings.

What can I do ?
