To the OP: there was another konsole "bug" about man recently, though I forget the number. That one was more about dynamic resizing, which basically is not do-able without a major re-write of man. For me, I get correct initial sizing (with Linux man, anyway, YMMV if you use man from e.g. Solaris, HP-UX, etc.) by adding 'export COLUMNS' to .bashrc/.bash_profile. (Which is not to say having 'man' query the terminal width itself wouldn't be nice :-).)
