Description Barry Jackson 2010-12-04 22:18:16 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

Starting konsole background mode with:-
konsole --background-mode 
fails with:-
[baz@jackodesktop ~]$ konsole --background-mode
QMetaObject::invokeMethod: No such method Konsole::Application::loadCommandLineOptionsForNewInstance()
[baz@jackodesktop ~]$ Undecodable sequence: \001b(hex)[36l

I have tested in KDE 4.5.3 and 4.5.2 with the same result.

A process is started, but F12 does nothing. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
As above.

Can't reproduce it in KDE-4.7.0

That failure was probably due to  that F12 is caught by something else. Try doing it with a clean account.  

Feel free to reopen if this still happens in recent version.
