It seems to be a low level Qt font handling bug and KDE 4.? uses bold/bright together that shows up the problem. I have two work arounds for Fedora 14 that we can use until this is fixed. 1. Unhandy, but works. When using "ls" command, specify "--color=never" as one of the parameters. This removes bold/bright and displays text correctly. 2. Better fix. In the konsole, select "Settings" on the toolbar. Select "Configure Profiles" from the drop down list. Select "Edit Profile" in the 'Manage Profiles' dialog box. In the 'Edit Profile "Shell"' dialog box, select the "Appearance" tab. Uncheck the 'Draw intense colors in bold font" option. Select "OK" and then select "OK". The problem will be fixed immediately in all konsoles. Maybe the intense option can be unselected by default until this error is corrected upstream.
