(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konsole
Version:           KDE 2.9.2 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

I'm using konsole with a lot of open shells.
When I logout (with "save session" active) and login again Konsole is automatically restarted with the shells but every shell is using the same working directory. This wasn't the situation as I loged out so it is not that what I expect.
If Konsole can't remember the last working directory it's better when Konsole is always starting with only one shell.
Another solution could be to allow different start directories for every new shell.

That's normal behaviour under *nix. So no bug & duplicate to #38374.

Erm, shouldn't useability be paramount?
If the standard is crap, why not fix it?

I'd rather get back into exactly the same working conditions that I left the workstation in than having to reset the working directories by hand.

If everything was kept as it is because it is "standard", we'd still be working with text screens and kde wouldn't exist. Why not change this?

Try Konsole of KDE 3.1 under Linux.

I shall do this sure enough. Regards
