[Konsole-devel] Bug#37909: cat <png file> causes konsole to freak out

[frans.englich at telia.com]

Package: konsole
Version: KDE 2.9.1 CVS/CVSup/Snapshot
Severity: normal
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 2.95.3
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified


Start konsole and go "cat < a png file of choice>" and watch the content get printed. The problem is, if you use the konsole afterwards it will print weird characters and the bash prompt will also look weird. Issuing a  reset command solves this. 
An virtual terminal doesn't suffer from this problem.

I'm using the latest cvsup, I checked it out while CVS was down.

regards,
Frans
