Konsole help

[Neorion]

Hey,

I run 10.0 community. I was running konsol when i realized i had to scroll up. There was a scroller but no bar or ^ or donw arrows. I thought it was just my windows then ls a long directory. I also went to settings>scrollbar. No use. Does anyone know how I can get thsi back. reset it? Something. Help is appreciated.

No idea about konsole, I don't use it. But here are some tricks when having long outputs working in terminals.

• You can scroll up and down pressing [sHIFT]-[PGUP] or [sHIFT]-[PGDOWN]
  
• You can 'catch' the output whith commands that allow you to scroll up and down with arrow keys, such as less, more, ...; ie

  ls | more

  
  

• You can capture the output in a file for later study. The output captured can be stdout, stderror, or both. ie - stdout:

  ~$ ls >&1 file

  
  - stderr:

  ~$ ls >&2 file

  
  - both:

  ~$ ls &> file

when you went to "settings->scrollbar" do you not have options to for the scrollbar to be on the left, right, or hide? they should be there. if not, then that one is a mystery to me.

Is there a ~/.konsole directory? If there is you could try renaming it and see what that does...

[chris z]

hmmm..........never thought of that. there is a Konsole directory. it's in /home/(username)/.kde(hidden directory)/share/apps. just to be safe, instead of deleting it, you could just rename it konsoleold then fire up konsole & see what happens.
