But now I find that this has the disastrous effect of apparently re-defining the konsole command. More precisely, running the command "konsole -e "/usr/bin/bash alfred-vpn'" has the effect that any subsequent call on konsole, eg by clicking on f=>Applications=>System=>Terminal (Konsole) now connects me to the remote site alfred and opens a window there. Even running Alt-F2 and entering "konsole" takes me to alfred. The only solution seems to be to logout and login again, or else run the command "konsole -e /usr/bin/bash localhost'", which apparently re-defines konsole to its usual meaning. I don't find any mention of this curious behaviour in the (sparse) documentation on konsole. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin _______________________________________________ kde mailing list -- kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to kde-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
