Hello guys,

I have searched and searched, but I have not found how to make Konqueror display the file copy dialog box.
I really need that feature cuz sometimes I copy 2000 files from one server to another (using fish://), and I definitely need to know how far it has to go.

thanks a lot for your time, in advance.

rob.

the dialog is only used as failsafe when there's not notification daemon - you should have it somewhere near the systray in the panel?

Thanks for the answer, but I use Xfce as a window manager, (which allows me to keep my computer on for years, without needing an Object-Oriented-Nightmare mandatory reboot). Therefore I have no such notification daemon.
In Fedora 21 I used to see the dialog, it used to appear. But I just upgraded to 23, and it's gone. [About KDE: Platform Version 4.14.14]
Maybe I am missing a kde app which would tell Konqueror which planet it is on ?

does a "kuiserver" process run?
Kill it, see what happens.

Hello luebking, no, there is no kuiserver, see below:

Since I run kate, konsole, and konqueror, I guess kde starts these daemons here all by itself:

By the way, I just upgraded my Fedora 23, to it's latest (using yum upgrade), and konqueror shows the same behaviour. No Dialog when copying or moving files. No notification anywhere. I only know that it finished when the target folder suddenly "selects" its files.

Sounds like a bug in kio or libknotify.
Do you get a dialog on "kioclient copy foo bar"? (foo should be some file

negative. No info at all. zilch, no notification of any kind until the operation finishes, at which time the target folder contains the copied data, and it magically becomes "selected".

Seems the dialog was removed.
kioclient4 starts the kuiserver, kioclient5 simply doesn't show progress...
