Description Syam 2010-04-03 11:02:33 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a konsole window
2. Run the 'yes' command
3. The konsole window becomes unusable, even Ctrl+C doesn't work
4. Open another Konsole tab or window.
5. It opens fine, but doesn't accept any input!

Only way out is to start another terminal (like gnome-terminal) and then kill the 'yes' process. Then all open Konsole windows return to their useful selves.

I'm on KDE 4.5.3 on Fedora 14 and this problem no longer exists.
