Description Vedran Sego 2009-02-17 19:44:13 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

When konsole is started and a session using non-existing key binding is started, kosnole crashes.

This has happened when I upgraded to KDE 4.2. It removed few key bindings and one of them was used by one of my profiles. When I started that profile, konsole crashed. When I started default profile and changed it to that broken profile, it stopped accepting keyboard input, but konsole did not crash.

This repairs easily: one has to edit the profile in question. Might be problem if all profiles are broken.

If you can reproduce the crash at will, may you read http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports and post a complete backtrace here? Thanks :)

Sorry, I cannot reconstruct it since I've repaired it. Maybe it would be possible with multiple restarts of my konsole, but I cannot "afford" that at the moment.

The way I see it, this is a matter of a minor if() somewhere in the startup of a new tab. If it's not easy to find it, it doesn't matter. I think my response is enough to help anyone who stumbles upon this problem and Googles it.

Sorry I cannot be more useful.
