Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-09-02 03:29:13 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

Sometime I get triggering krunner and enter a command, e.g. “firefox youtube.com?blabla” for opening a youtube video to download it as I have not yet installed a youtube downloader in chromium or “kdesudo nvidia-settings“ for quickly checking my graphics gard.
So I quickly enter that term and press enter. Nothing happens. If I press Enter again, the command is run.
This seems to be due to krunner‘s modular structure, so also running a command (what should be it‘s initial purpose) is done using a plugin for running. And sometimes it does not pop up (and thus not getting focus) or too slow for the quick entering+Enter to be responded to.

Reproducible: Sometimes

workaround: Konsole + Ctrl + R (reverse-i-search), that's fast !
see: bashref.html > reverse-search-history (C-r)
