Version: 2.1 (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: g++ OS: Linux From an open console, ctrl-d to quit. If I run konsole again from the kde menu, it won't open. The konsole icon appears on the task bar, and a grey box starts bouncing next to the mouse cursor. After about 10 to 20 seconds of this, the konsole icon and bouncing disappear. Konsole does not open. I can then start konsole again (from the kde menu) without any problems. If I wait a bit longer between ctrl-d and trying to restart konsole, it opens properly.
Hello, Can you try running Konsole from another terminal (eg. xterm) with the --nofork argument (konsole --nofork). When you exit using Ctrl+D, does Konsole exit immediately or does it continue running for some time?
Konsole exits immediately
> Konsole exits immediately If you then start Konsole again from the terminal, does it come up immediately? What happens if you repeat the process but without the --nofork argument?
Hmmm.. now I can't reproduce the original bug. It starts up everytime. When I reported it, it always had the same behaviour. I svn upped and rebuilt kde, and logged out and in tonight. Something must have changed. I guess I'll change this to Resolved.
