Version: cvs head from today (Mon Jan 24 19:40:19 CET 2005); but also in cvs/head from 2004.12.22 (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Compiler: gcc (GCC) 3.3.4 (pre 3.3.5 20040809) libc 2.3.3 (20040917) OS: Linux I'm still using konsole -D2004.12.21.22.41.44, because since a bit later that day, konsole draws an ugly frame around the window contents. I'm using "Linux colors" scheme and no frame, no menu, no tabbar, and no slider. See here for a screenshot: http://members.aon.at/mfranz/konsole.png (6 kB) (Even the much better "before" image has these ugly white 1 pixel lines on top and bottom, but these are AFAIK caused by Qt.) The bug started probably with this commit to konsole.cpp: revision 1.493 date: 2004/12/22 17:38:56; author: hindenburg; state: Exp; lines: +28 -124 Convert konsole to use the new ktabwidget->setTabBarHidden for hiding the tabbar.
We're aware of this. The benefits of the new code greatly outweighs a couple of extra pixels around the terminal. Just look at the number of bug reports dealing with hiding the tabbar in versions prior to 3.4. At some time in the future I may look at what is acutally causing this...

Too bad that this bugs prevents you from using konsole as system log monitor on the background. This is a huge drawback for me and I will have to switch back to using Eterm. See my screenshot in the bug report #99587
No offense guys, but this totally ruins full screen mode as well. *full screen* should mean *full screen*, not "almost full screen except for a frame that is there for no good reason" this is definitely a regression in features, please revert whatever you broke and do it the RightWay(tm)
I should mention that this also causes a gap at the bottom of my screen because the extra pixels are just enough to keep an extra line from being drawn. screen shot is here: http://poptix.net/konsole-notreallyfullscreen.png
I heard on irc that this bug is solved in CVS. Is it right ? and so is there a patch I could apply to main branch somewhere ? Thanks.
No, it is not right. I just updated to HEAD, and the ugly frame is still there.
ok, thanks and sorry for the mistake.
I'm waiting on Qt4; which is suppose to fix this issue. We'll see what fullscreen looks like then.
Is there any way to get rid of the one-pixel white lines at the top and bottom of the screen in the old konsole? I know Melchior suggested it's a QT issue, so is there some qt option that handles it?

how can i install an old konsole version to kill these lines using a kde-3.4.0? is there any other possible solution? tnx a lot!!
install the kdelibs development package/headers from your distribution; check out kdebase/konsole/ from KDE's cvs with -D2004.12.20; compile it; install it; BTW: I'm not using konsole's brain-dead "fullscreen" mode (where you have the ugly white lines and no access to the auto-hiding panel), but simply let a shell script resize the konsole window so that the window decoration and the white lines are outside the screen. Just typing "fs" in the shell does this for me. :-)
tnx, i did, export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.kde.org:/home/kde cvs login cvs co -D "December 20, 2004" kdebase/konsole cd kdebase/konsole.. and now how can i generate the configure script? ( i tried make -f Makefile.cvs )

Fixed in KDE 4. WONTFIX for KDE 3 series unfortunately for fear of breaking existing setups.
