Hello,

I'm curious if others have had any trouble configuring kde's konsole. I've installed fink and kde from binary with finkCommander. I can launch konsole and there's no trouble. However, once I've created at least two shells in konsole, shift-8 (*) and shift-= (+) are interpreted as arrow-right and arrow-left respectively (i know that's opposite their physical orientation on the keyboard).

This behavior is irrespective of konsole's shortcut settings (Settings->Configure Shortcuts) and does not seem to be effected by X11-Preferences turning off all Input translating options. The keys are interpreted correctly by xterm, and xev, so my thought is that this is a konsole specific issue.

I've created a new user in os X, logged in as him with a clean environment, and the same behavior remains, which to me means, it is not a user-misconfiguration, but at least a system wide config error, which is why I wanted to know if anyone else has seen this, or knows how to correct it.

Does this strange behavior ring a bell for anyone? Any help or pointers will be greatly appreciated. Imagine trying to type 'ls -l *' without being able to type '*' :-)

I'm runnign mac os X 10.3 panther with all updates.
$ fink --version
Package manager version: 0.17.4
Distribution version: 0.6.2
FinkCommander 0.5.1
kde 3.1.4-21

Thank you,
Stephen.




I had a similar problem that affected all KDE applications. In my case it was just a user-level misconfiguration: I removed the .kde folder and .kderc file from my home directory and that cleared the problem up.
