           Summary: konsole initial size is wrong on small displays
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mefoster at gmail.com


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

My Acer Aspire One has a 1024x600 screen, and this seems to make konsole have
difficulties starting with a sensible size. The following is 100%
reproduceable:

- Open a konsole -- size is 984x270 (nb: my panel is 40 pixels wide on the
left, so this is full-width)
- Open another konsole -- this one is 522x600 (full height)
- Open a third konsole -- goes back to the wide version

And subsequent konsoles alternate like this, whatever I do with the size of
each individual konsole. I'd expect it (a) not to come up in this weird size,
or at least (b) to remember its size after I resize it.

I *was* able to get reasonably-sized default konsoles by setting the kwin
"special window properties".

Here's my konsolerc (nb: sometimes I use an external monitor that's 1440x900):
