Description Christoph Burgmer 2009-01-14 05:00:39 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Konsole forgets the window size settings from the last session since 4.1.4. In 4.1.3 it would resume with the the same size (80x33 for me).

Doing a
rm .kde4/share/config/konsolerc
solves the issue for the next run until a new rc-file is created.

This bug does not seem connected to Bug 165520.
Comment 1 Christoph Burgmer 2009-01-14 05:16:00 UTC 
It seems that the konsole musn't touch the taskbar spanning the whole vertical space.

More precisely:

$ rm .kde4/share/config/konsolerc

*restart konsole* (no the window takes up maxmimum vertical space)

$ cat .kde4/share/config/konsolerc
[Desktop Entry]
DefaultProfile=Shell.profile

[Favorite Profiles]
Favorites=/home/christoph/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile

[MainWindow]
Height 768=769
State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAApEAAAKmAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAAA
Width 1024=657

*restart konsole* (no the window takes up maximum horizontal space)

$ cat .kde4/share/config/konsolerc
[Desktop Entry]
DefaultProfile=Shell.profile

[Favorite Profiles]
Favorites=/home/christoph/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile

[MainWindow]
Height 768=307
State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAA/YAAAEaAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAAA
Width 1024=1025

*resize to 89x13*
*restart konsole* (keeps its setting)

$ cat .kde4/share/config/konsolerc
[Desktop Entry]
DefaultProfile=Shell.profile

State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAAtkAAAEaAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAAA
Width 1024=729

*restart konsole*

$ cat .kde4/share/config/konsolerc
[Desktop Entry]
DefaultProfile=Shell.profile

So I can have 80x33 as long as the window doesn't touch the taskbar.

I've got the same behaviour as I have described in bug 182422. It's really irritating having to manually resize the konsole all the time.
Comment 3 Simon Williams 2009-02-17 20:33:45 UTC 
Just upgraded form 4.1.3 to 4.2.0 and now I have this problem too. It works fine so long as isn't tall enough to tough the taskbar at the bottom of the screen.

Comment 5 Panos Kavalagios 2009-03-18 12:58:59 UTC 
Check KDE 4.2.1. It seems it has been resolved in this version.
Comment 6 Christoph Burgmer 2010-03-26 15:17:53 UTC 
Seems to work under 4.3.4, closing as WORKSFORME.
Comment 7 Panos Kavalagios 2010-03-26 15:21:47 UTC 
Try again! The bug was out there and it has been fixed in 4.2.1. The correct resolution is RESOLVED FIXED and not WORKSFORME which denote that the bug never existed and worked fine.
Comment 8 Christoph Burgmer 2010-03-26 16:53:24 UTC 
Well, if this makes any difference, changing to FIXED.
