Description Aaron Williams 2003-01-20 23:23:09 UTC
Version:           1.2 (using KDE 3.1.0 (RC6))
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
OS:          SunOS (sun4u) release 5.7

When running vi or emacs ctrl-B does not work.  This is in 3.1rc6.

I know this was a problem that was fixed in the past, but it's back.

I am running QT 3.1.1.

The ^B problem does not go away after opening the Bookmarks menu. 
 
Add Bookmark is always grayed out and no acceleration key is shown in the menu.  The menu 
does not change if I open it more than once, nor does the behavior change. 
 
I went back and checked 3.1rc5 and the same problem exist. 
 
I don't know if this problem is specific to Solaris or not since SuSE has not released 3.1 for Linux 
yet.

Hi Waldo, 
 
I understand the ^B problem was fixed some time back in konsole, but it 
seems to have returned in 3.1rc6.  Do you have any idea where the 
problem was the last time or how it was fixed?  I can't find the 
reference as to how it was fixed in the bug database, only that it was 
fixed. 
   
 
It's related to the bookmark code. That seems to set the Ctrl-B shortcut for the "Add Bookmark" 
action. It shouldn't. I can reproduce some strangeness in this area, but not exactly the problem 
you describe. 
Does your ^B problem by any chance go away after you open the "Bookmarks" menu? Does it 
show "Ctrl-B" after "Add Bookmark"? 
If so, does it still show that when you open it a second time? 
 
Cheers, 
Waldo

could this be related to http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20632 ?

The bookmark menu does not change or affect the behavior at all.

I looked at the changes that were checked in to the CVS tree for ^B.  I found changes in 
kdelibs-3.1/kio/bookmark/kbookmarkmenu.cpp&h 
kdebase-3.1/konsole/konsole/konsole.cpp 
kdebase-3.1/konsole/konsole/konsolebookmarkmenu.cpp 
 
I replicated the changes.  I no longer see Ctrl+B next to the greyed out "Add Bookmark" in the 
bookmark menu, but it still doesn't work. 
 
Is there any way to actually add a bookmark while in a konsole session?  I can see editing a 
bookmark, but how to add one?  If it is not possible to add a bookmark in a konsole session then 
maybe it should be dropped entirely from the menu. 
 
 
I also tried adding 
 
key B +Control : "\x02" 
 
to the keytab file, but it made no difference.

Please see #45312 and try to change the desktop screenshot shortcut.

This solved the problem.
