Description Philipp Pagel 2001-11-18 19:50:49 UTC 
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konsole
Version:           1.0.2 (using KDE 2.2.1 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Debian Package 4:2.2.1-14 (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011006 (Debian prerelease)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.12
OS/Compiler notes: 

Any changes to the color schema are not applied to new root consoles I open - they always fall back to the default scheme (no error mesage). Other settings (e.g. font size) work fine.
New shells or linux consoles use the selected schema.

Simple reason: Schema definitions in session type entries override user
selected. Remove "Schema=" line in $KDEDIR/share/apps/konsole/su.desktop
if you want to "fix" it or add schema there which you want to be default.

> New shells or linux consoles use the selected schema.

Linux consoles should behave like root consoles (have a schema defined).

I have the same problem and I consider it as a bug. What is the reason for having this 
line in the desktop file ? As a normal user, how do I specify my schema for my root 
konsoles ?
