           Summary: First instance of Konsole doesn't appear as a window
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: caleb at aei-tech.com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.2 
OS:          Linux

Whenever I first start Konsole, no program starts.  The launch feedback ticks, but Konsole never seems to run.  Any subsequent launchings of Konsole work okay.

The initial Konsole process that "didn't start" is still an active process in the ps list.  For example, I've clicked Konsole twice, though I only have 1 running graphically.  Two show up in the process list, however.  I am able to kill the first one manually, with no effect on KDE.  Killing the second instance kills the Konsole window that is currently running in KDE.

This has persisted since I upgraded to KDE3.0.  I have just completely reinstalled my linux system from scratch (all from sources), including KDE, and the problem still exists. 

If there is any troubleshooting I can do to give more information, please let me know.
