Hi Anne, | > 1. Now I don't find "sessions". On the old konsole, I had | > a session (tab) that automatically SSHes me to a remote host, | > and another session that opens a root shell. How can I have | > a similar capability? | > | Some, if not all of this can be done by setting up profiles | (Settings > Manage Profiles). I have one profile that gives me a | root profile (/bin su -) with a different background, to make it | obvious. I don't have a profile for a remote connection, but I have | a bookmark set up, that, together with keychain, automatically logs | me onto a remote box. Thank you for the help! That works perfectly. Even a remote connection can be done with a profile, with "/usr/bin/ssh -X -l username remote.example.com" as its command. (So, the notion of "session" of the old konsole is absorbed in that of "profile", it seems.) I may also explore your method of using a bookmark. | > 2. I miss the bell.

If a visible bell will do, try setting | notifications to flash the taskbar tab. The result is curious. In Settings > Configure Notifications there is an item "Bell in Visible Session". If you set "Show a message in a popup" for this item, you'll see a popup when you type "echo -e '\a'". That means that this item is indeed the bell we are talking about. Unfortunately, I can't get it work. Nothing happens if "Mark taskbar entry" is assigned to the bell. Nothing happens, either, if "Run command" is assigned and "/usr/bin/tput flash" is specified as its command, even though the command itself works from the command line. Maybe it's time to submit a bug report. Regards, Ryo ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde mailing list.
