Description Xavier Gnata 2015-09-15 09:41:57 UTC 
Each I time I switch the display (using System Settings) from my laptop screen to my external screen (or reverve), konsole crashes.

 I get that:
 xavier@nano:~$ konsole
 QCoreApplication::arguments: Please instantiate the QApplication object first
 QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
 QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
 kf5.kiconthemes: "Theme tree: (Breeze)"
 xavier@nano:~$ KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
 KCrash: Application Name = konsole path = /usr/bin pid = 18571
 KCrash: Arguments: /usr/bin/konsole
 
Both screen have the same resolution. Therefore it should not even be an issue linked to resizing.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Laptop screen off and konsole on external (primary) screen
2. Use System Settings ot switch off the extral screen and setup the laptop screen as primary
3. konsole crashes.

Actual Results:  
konsole crashes.

Expected Results:  
 konsole should appear on the internal laptop screen.

This is a generic Qt issue, one of many bugs around that theme:
