konsole shell color question?

Hello, All
First, I am new here with Arch, actually I have only installed it twice two different computer. My problem,question persists on both of them.  I have look though the forum
till my eyes bug out, I just haven't seen the neon sign that has my answer on it, so I thought I would ask. By the way, I 'm very impress with the way Arch runs.. hats off to devs.
My question, When I click on the icon (or menu) for Konsole  it launches and works as it should but, the colors are always reset to shell's colors  witch is white background with green text. It acts like another program or file is controlling the color part, cause if I change to a linux console new session the colors I want for konsole are remembered.  Thanks for being so patient with us arch newbies, gypsy

I found this bug report: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=135428

Do you have a konsolerc stored in the right folder? It's just a suggestion, since I don't use kde myself.

Re: konsole shell color question?

 locate konsolerc
/home/*******/.kde/share/config/konsolerc
/opt/kde/share/config/kdemod/konsolerc
/root/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments/konsolerc.desktop
/root/.kde/share/config/konsolerc

I don't know? Where do I need to put it, or where's should it be ? I also notice kdmtheme(manager) doesn't work right either, maybe that's a clue. Thanks,gypsy

Re: konsole shell color question?

For me it's fine if I launch the konsole for the user, it's not when I open the root konsole.
To circumvent such misbehavior I call kdesu to launch the konsole.

I'm having the konsole-color problem too. It seems not all settings are working.

Re: konsole shell color question?

mid_night gypsy: thats normal. I haven't had one, too, until i needed it for some configuration. Just create one, when you need to put options into it.
