Description scott.jacobsen 2003-01-23 20:38:42 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.1.0 (RC6))
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-3

When I open a terminal emulator in konqueror the following is displayed in the emulator window

^A^Kcd '/'
bash: ~> ^A^Kcd '/'
      cd: command not found

It appears as though konq is sending ^A^K before the cd command. I also have konq in the root dir to be sure I am not in any dir with special chars. Whenever I select a new directory in the gui, the cd command fails in the emulator because the command is always prefixed by ^A^K.

I searched the bug lists and mailing lists, but couldn't find any reports like this.

Just installed KDE 3.1 using konstruct. Still happens.

Are there any details about this fix? Is there a patch, or files I need to get 
from CVS, or what? Sorry if it is a silly question. I don't really know the 
procedure here.

Thanks.
