krisbee2000 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Here, look at this... when I put the Konsole widget on my taskbar, when I click it it first makes a box with the word "Shell" in it, and I have to double click that to actually start the widget. What is the deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the deal? Sort of solved it- just dragged konsole from the startmenu and I don't have that issue. Guess this is solved :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniewicz Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I have to double click that to actually start the widget I have noticed this myself but never looked into it. I assume it is a feature that I don't understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest webguy Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 I have noticed this myself but never looked into it. I assume it is a feature that I don't understand. It's a plasma applet called konsole profiles, which enables you to do things like save a konsole session in a favourite working directory and reopen it again later in the same directory, without having to navigate all the way there. :) There's a similar thing for Konqueror, which enables you to start it up in different views/have different default locations for more than one tab. An older version in KDE3 was configured in Mandriva to also open a console as root user, and had a nice yellow background to remind you not to do anything stupid while you were in it. I assume you could still do the same thing by opening konsole with a specially configured rc file and save the session, but I've not managed to find out exactly how.
