Version: (using KDE 4.0.83) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Compiler: gcc (SUSE Linux) 4.3.1 20080507 (prerelease) [gcc-4_3-branch revision 135036] OS: Linux When starting konsole, the manage profiles list has 3 entries, two of them corresponding to the same profile, and the "show in menu" setting is cleared for all of them. After I set "show in menu" and close the menu, the "manage profiles" list lists everything normally, until I restart konsole. I checked, and there are only 2 profile files in ~/.kde4/share/apps/konsole.
Can you please post the contents of your ~/.kde4/share/config/konsolerc file
Well, this was always happening during the first week I was using KDE4, now it has stopped... Anyway, here's ~/.kde4/share/config/konsolerc: [$Version] update_info=konsole.upd:kde2.2/r1,konsole.upd:kde3.0/r1 [Colors] CurrentPalette=Forty Colors [Desktop Entry] DefaultProfile=Shell.profile [Favorite Profiles] Favorites=/home/auxsvr/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Root shell.profile,/home/auxsvr/.kde4/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile [MainWindow] Height 768=769 State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAA/YAAAKIAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAAA Width 1024=1025 [TipOfDay] TipLastShown=2008,6,14,21,56,18

This happens again after I upgraded to 4.1.3, however the "show in menu" setting is saved.

I am still getting this bug in a recent SVN. Keep in menu is not saved and sometimes the profiles appear twice in the menu. I cannot find my konsolerc file. Has it moved?
Just wanted to add that this bug has reared itself again. Note the Favourite Profile that was created automatically. It doesn't exist. Will need to play with this, i guess.

When kde4 was initially released, konsole had no profiles shipping with it, so I created the Root shell one. After some releases, profiles would ship with it in /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole, one of which is Root_Shell.profile, which happened to have the same settings as mine except for the font. The two profiles, Root Shell.profile and Root_Shell.profile, have the same Name setting, and probably konsole was as confused as I when it displayed them in the profile list, i.e. they are different profiles that appear to have the same name. Any settings of the shipped Root_Shell.profile I make are saved in Root Shell.profile in ~/.kde4, which complicates the matter even more. It appears that konsole in some places treats Name as set in the .profile file as the profile object, and in others treats the name of the profile file as the profile object.

Upstream Konsole still does not include any profiles out of the box except for the default one which is a plain shell. This is deliberate and I would prefer that Linux distributions aimed at a general audience do not add any themselves. Which Linux distribution are you using?
I'm using opensuse.
So the culprit is the second profile shipped with the distribution? What if someone changes some settings for the default profile, won't the same problem occur in this case?
