I couldn't reproduce this issue; is there a crash backtrace?
I have the same issue. gdb results: -------------------------------------------------------------- Starting program: /usr/bin/konsole [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/usr/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

@Spirit: in gdb, after the crash, use the bt command to get more frames/info, the post the output here. (And if possible, please install the debuginfo packages for libqt5gui).
Same issue. I noticed that if I switch my default Konsole profile to the "Default" and then disable "Remember window size" it doesn't crash anymore. I created a new profile, didn't modify it, made it the default, "Remember window size" still disabled and Konsole launches without problems. Started looking what settings differ between my profile and the default one, set the initial terminal size to 130x28 for my new profile. Still works. Up next color scheme, switched it to "White on Black" and boom, crashes on startup. Tested other color schemes, working ones: Black on Light Yellow Black on Random Light Black on White Blue on Black Breeze Dark Pastels Green on Black Linux Colors Solarized Solarized Light Crash on startup: Red on Black White on Black Looking further I've noticed that only the 2 crashing color schemes had "Blur background" enabled. With that disabled it no longer crashes. So it seems an issue with combining blurred backgroung (even with 0% transparency) with NOT remembering window size. Weird.
OK, not a crash backtrace, but the blur issue gives us a clue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 439871 ***
Created attachment 140885 [details] konsole backtrace Forgot the backtrace, attached it now. Also, this happens on my PC with Nvidia GTX 1060 (proprietary driver) and on a ThinkPad with a Ryzen APU. Both openSUSE TW, should be identical QT, KDE versions.
Thanks for that. The backtrace confirms it's bug 439871.
I see a fix was already committed. Thanks @Ahmad_Samir.
