Evidently Konsole isn't bash. It's a terminal, i.e. *an interface* to the 
system and its command line shell.
Using Konsole doesn't mean you are using (or not using) bash, the two are 
completely unrelated. Konsole is a (virtual) terminal, which will use whatever 
shell your system uses, could be bash, sh, ksh or whatever other flavours are 
around.

Try "sh --version" in a Konsole window, for me that shows I'm using bash.
