Description Matt Whitlock 2009-01-28 07:57:39 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Compiler:          gcc (Gentoo 4.3.3 p1.0, pie-10.1.5) 4.3.3 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I have a Konsole icon on my panel (added to the panel through the context menu on the applications menu).  I can start one instance of Konsole by clicking on the button, no problem.  But the second instance I try to start greets me with a message box titled "Sorry - Plasma Workspace" that says "KDEInit could not launch '/usr/bin/konsole'."  Odd thing is, the second instance of Konsole does start up just fine.  Launching a second instance of Konsole from the applications menu does not give the error message.

I'm not sure whether this is a Plasma bug, a KDEInit bug, or a Konsole bug.
