Description Rasmus Steinke 2008-11-30 21:54:19 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

if zsh is set as default shell (using chsh) plasma suddenly displays the panel differently.

here the same panel with bash as default shell:

Also using zsh as default shell makes some keys unresponsible in a kde session (tested in awesomeWM, there it worked)

by the way: having bash as default and starting zsh manually, my keys all work...
Comment 2 Aaron J. Seigo 2008-12-01 03:01:33 UTC
since we have plasma developers who use zsh, i'm going to go out on a limb and say it's something in your zsh environment setup. otherwise, i'm sure we would have heard about this by now ;)
Comment 3 Rasmus Steinke 2008-12-01 09:39:23 UTC
hmmm... zsh works in every other WM i tried... this does only affect kde4, otherwise i wouldnt have reported it here :)
Comment 4 Rasmus Steinke 2008-12-01 09:43:53 UTC
just tried the following:

rm -fr .kde*
kill everything that is related to kde (including stuff like mysqld for anokadi)
start X with openbox as WM.
open urxvt

result: a nice and all working zsh login.

kill X
start X with KDE
open urxvt

result: a sh session.
starting konsole with /bin/zsh as shell command: some keys dont work.


So yea, it must be SOMETHING with this kde install...

ah, another thing: it does work of course in a X-less session..
