View source in Konqueror

[reader at newsguy.com]

Setup: Gentoo linux
       kde-3.5-8 desktop


Its hard to tell where to post this question..  Looking on the
gmane.org server for kde and I see dozens of groups.

some one was kind enough to point me here

If this is the wrong place please point where I should take this.

In the Kcontrol settings:
KDE components/File Associatinos/text/plain
  No matter which one I choose (emacs, kwrite,kate)
When I restart konq and try to view source... I just get the bouncing
cursor that eventually times out but nothing ever comes up.

I tried putting the absolute path in the dialog but it acts no
different.  Can anyone advise me how to further debug this?
