(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: konsole Version: 0.9.15 (KDE 1.93 Beta >= 20000813) Severity: normal When i run konsole right after i login the background doesn't come out transparent. I have to move the window to force it to redraw and then it works. It works ok with every konsole i open afterwards.
I just made a log of what KDE prints to the tty when its running. This just after i execute the first konsole: kio (KLauncher): setLaunchEnv KDE_INITIAL_DESKTOP=1 Got SETENV 'KDE_INITIAL_DESKTOP=1' from klauncher kio (KLauncher): KLauncher: Got start_service_by_desktop_path('/opt/kde2/share/applnk/System/konsole.desktop' ...) KInit: Got EXEC 'konsole' from klauncher kio (KLauncher): konsole (pid 27916) up and running. kicker: clientStarted(konsole konsole 27916d) DCOP: register 'anonymous-27916' plain app id is anonymous kdeui (KRootPixmap): [krootpixmap.cpp:186] activating background exports. kdesktop: KBackgroundManager enabling exports. kdeui (KRootPixmap): WARNING: [krootpixmap.cpp:173] loading of desktop background failed. kicker: clientMapped 27916 kicker: Found a button to kill for pid 27916d kdeui (KRootPixmap): WARNING: [krootpixmap.cpp:173] loading of desktop background failed. ... and the transparent background doesn't appear. And this is immediately after i move the window to force a redraw: kdesktop: bool KPixmapServer::x11Event(union _XEvent *): request for DESKTOP1 ... and now the background is drawn. I hope this helps.
