When I run konsole, specifying "-bg", I get the following message: WARNING: The Qt option -bg, --background has no effect Google yielded zero hits. 1) Why not? 2) Why does konsole --help-all show it? 3) Is there an alternative way to control konsole's colors from the command line. ___________________________________________________ .
