Hello!

Resizing the konsole window correctly reports the resize to the currently active screen but not to the hidden screens.
This is a somewhat annoying problem
when using programs that heavily depend on
the resize information (like bash with its readline library).

Does this still happen with KDE 2.2.2?

Believed to be fixed since 2.1.1 hard to tell the opposite without feedback.

I can still confirm this bug with KDE 3.3!
It's actually very easy to reproduce.
Just fire up a konsole with bash, execute a command with a long duration (e.g. cp of a large file), resize the konsole while the command is running and thereafter, readline goes insane (try to input a 2 line command....).

There's also a workaround: Resize the konsole once more and then run the command "reset" and readline goes back to normal.
