Bug ID: 367737 Summary: restoring session adds an extra konsole window and doesn't always respect windows placement Product: konsole Version: unspecified Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org Reporter: fr.fr...@gmail.com konsole - 16.08.0 Kubuntu xenial Neon stable packages nVidia driver 367.35 dual heads: primary 27" landscape secondary 20" portrait (left of primary) I'm using 6 konsole windows on 1 desktop, on the primary (27") screen, in 2 rows of 3 windows. When restoring session, say at boot up time, I get an extra konsole (center up against top edge) on the other screen, that is the 20" portrait on the left of the primary display. Everything I type in this window is mirrored inside one of the 6 other windows. If I type in that window (where the mirroring happened), it will in turn be mirrored in the extra window. The 6 windows are not restored in the same order they were right before the session got terminated. The concept of what I call "order" is tied to the fact that konsoles can remember the current path for their shell. So if I terminate the session with: [ k1 - path1 ] [ k2 - path2 ] [ k3 - path3 ] [ k4 - path4 ] [ k5 - path5 ] [ k6 - path6 ] I might obtain the following session restored: [ k1 - path5 ] [ k2 - path2 ] [ k3 - path4 ] [ k4 - path6 ] [ k5 - path3 ] [ k6 - path1 ] and an extra "mirrored" window Sometimes (though more rarely) I get only a few konsoles restored (again not respecting the original "order") An extra konsole (still "mirrored") on the left screen The remaining konsoles are restored in other desktop, following the kwin window creation rule, in my case centered. Workaround: none that I can think of with konsole so I end up using xterm with some real ugly bachrc stuff to keep track of current path. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.create 2 rows of 3 konsoles 2.execute "cd /some/where" in each of them 3.reboot 4.log in again Actual Results: one extra window - in my case on the other screen" - that will mirror one of the restored konsoles konsole windows restored don't have the same current path as the ones before reboot, with respect to their actual position sometimes a few of the restored konsole are stacked in another desktop Expected Results: same number of konsoles restore them in the same position, i.e. for a given position, the shell current path must remain the same. that was working with KDE4. I see the bug only now, as "konsole" was basically unusable with my set-up before that.
