Description George Staikos 2002-02-14 18:52:46 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konsole
Version:           1.1 Beta2 (using KDE 2.9.0 2 (3.0 beta2))
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.14-SMP
OS/Compiler notes: 

Reporting this here before I forget.  It's not easy to reproduce so here is an example incase anyone wants to look at it.  It kind of looks like an uninialized buffer (perhaps a missing memset or something like that?).

I clicked New on the session bar and before doing anything else this is what I saw:

reassign 38108 x-files

What's "not easy to reproduce"? Any more instructions please? :-)

No answer, let's assume it's fixed.

  That's a 3.0 beta bug!  I sure hope it's fixed. :-)

Don't hope, try and tell us if it's fixed. :-)

hi,
I have a similar bug. If I open a new konsole type some commands (e.g. ls -l) and then open a new tab from which I jump back to the previous tab the output of the last command is scrolled up. Only three lines are visible and also the mostly 2/3 of all columns on the right are cleared.

Here is an example:
tv@gareth [~] ls -l
total 14
drwx------   3 tv users  384 Jun 10 22:58 Desktop/
drwx------  19 tv users 2168 Jun 10 23:01 Mail/
drwxr-xr-x   5 tv users  416 Jun  9 15:58 OpenOffice.org1.1.1/
drwxr-xr-x   3 tv users  472 May  8 22:12 bin/
drwx------  89 tv users 2424 Jun  8 23:40 data/
drwx------   8 tv users  472 Jun  7 19:57 evolution/
drwxr-xr-x   7 tv users  192 Jun  7 23:34 kvirc-3.0.0-beta2/
-rw-r--r--   1 tv users 2065 Mar  1  2003 plugin131.trace
drwxr--r--  22 tv users 2128 Jun  8 23:47 tmp/
tv@gareth [~]

Now I type CTRL+ALT+N and get a new tab, from which I directly jump back to the first tab with SHIT+LEFT ARROW. And here is what I see then:
drwxr-xr-x   7 t
-rw-r--r--   1 t
drwxr--r--  22 t
tv@gareth [~]

This only happens right after starting the new tab window. If I type some more commands and switch the tabs, everything is ok.

regards

Timo
