Description Adrian Head 2004-02-14 14:04:11 UTC

Version:           1.3 (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:          Linux

Konsole displays the terminal size box when I do the following:
* Open a Shell terminal and use tab complete (this only happens in the 1st opened shell terminal and doesn't happen when in screen).
- It seems as if some of the tab keypresses are stolen by Konsole as it can take 3 or more tab keypresses to do the completion that only requires 2 keypresses in a native Linux console.
* When accessing the top menus for the 1st time.

Expected behaviour is that the terminal size box only be displayed when the terminal window is resized or text size changes.

This behaviour can be reproduced everytime.

Workaround:
* Do not use the 1st opened shell session for work - use the 2nd.

I can not seem to be able to reproduce this bug. I believe I had seen this one once during the betas for 3.2, but I have not been able to reproduce it all now.

Well what would you like me to do now?  What extra info do you require?

Do you want me to have a go at CVS instead of released packages?

I have noticed this same bug, using KDE 3.2 on "slackware-current".  The first konsole window I open shows the terminal size box any time I hit the tab key, unless or until I open a second tab.  I was going to report it as a bug when I found that it had already been reported.

I have also noticed that the terminal size box pops up in my first terminal window if I backspace (causing the bell to ring) and again when I type the first character after causing the above.  Like the "tab key" problem above, after opening a second tab this behavior goes away.

With the update to KDE3.2.1 this problem seems to have disapeared.  So for the moment I'll mark this bug as RESOLVED.
