I'm not sure it's a bug or a feature?

I open konsole enter ./skype & and close konsole with alt+f4 or with menubar..it kills my skype

If the shell is closed, it sends child processes a hangup signal. This has nothing to do with konsole or any other terminal emulator.

Start skype like this: "nohup sykpe &"
