Description Andreas Klöckner 2006-10-11 02:54:22 UTC

Version:           1.6.5 (using KDE 3.5.4, Debian Package 4:3.5.4-3 (testing/unstable))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18

Way to reproduce this bug:

1. Open Konsole
2. Select a different Color Scheme under Settings
3. Click "Settings | Save as Default"
4. Close Konsole
5. Reopen Konsole
6. Observe color scheme reverted back to what it was in step 1.

Expected Result:

The color scheme change should have persisted.

Comment 1 Kurt Hindenburg 2006-10-11 04:28:11 UTC

Need more info... it works here...

What schema did you pick and what does this output?

% grep -i schema $KDEHOME/share/config/konsolerc

Comment 2 Andreas Klöckner 2006-10-11 06:22:58 UTC

Original Schema: Konsole Standard
New Schema: Black on Light Yellow

~ grep -i schema $KDEHOME/share/config/konsolerc
grep: /share/config/konsolerc: No such file or directory
~ grep -i schema $KDEHOME/share/config/konsolerc
grep: /share/config/konsolerc: No such file or directory
~ grep -i schema /usr/share/config/konsolerc
grep: /usr/share/config/konsolerc: No such file or directory
~ grep -i schema /usr/lib/kde/share/config/konsolerc
grep: /usr/lib/kde/share/config/konsolerc: No such file or directory
~ locate konsolerc
~

("~" is the prompt)

Comment 3 Kurt Hindenburg 2006-10-11 15:54:51 UTC

Well, if there is no konsolerc, then the 'Save as Default' is not able to save the new settings.  There's something amiss with your system/permissions if Konsole is not about to save its config file.

Comment 4 Nicolas Dietrich 2006-12-07 15:58:26 UTC

We experienced the same problem on a fresh Debian etch netinstall + some KDE packages. I'm not sitting in front of that box right now, but I can that ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc exists, and even includes the entry schema=WhiteOnBlack.schema. 

Unfortunately, konsole wakes up again and again with Konsole Default colors. Chosing "white on black" does work for the current session.

Comment 5 Simon Joecks 2006-12-08 18:54:05 UTC

in Addition to Nico Dietrich Comment:
I've choose:
Linux Colors

% grep -i schema ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc 
> schema=Linux.schema

my $KDEHOME is not set!

Comment 6 Haris Kouzinopoulos 2007-09-07 09:07:43 UTC

I had the same problem until i deleted ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc that was created by KDE3's konsole. Maybe this could fix your problem?

Comment 7 Haris Kouzinopoulos 2007-09-13 13:24:34 UTC

The problem persists to me as well for konsole in trunk. I am confirming this bug.

By trunk you mean KDE 4?  Or the current KDE 3 branch?

Comment 9 Robert Knight 2008-03-19 03:10:20 UTC

Any updates on this?  A response to comment #8?
