[Konsole-devel] Konsole crashed, now settings are screwed

I'm using Konsole version 2.1, KDE 4.1.1, Kubuntu hardy.  During a long
computation Konsole locked up.  Not the process doing the computation -
Konsole its self.  The window stopped repainting and everything, and I had
to use ctrl-alt-esc to shut it down.  Anyway, now a bunch of my settings in
Konsole are messed up.  The list is far too numerous to list in full, but
here are the major things I've noticed that are at best annoying, at worst
deal breakers:

-Menu bar, scroll bar, and tab bar all stopped appearing (fixed this one
myself)
-Some keystrokes are registered incorrectly - for example, F8 registers as
Shift-F8 and Pageup registers as Shift-Pageup.  Changing key bindings has
helped with some issues (backspace at first wasn't registered correctly),
but others I haven't been able to solve.
-Konsole used to clear the screen when I exited Vim; this is no longer the
case
-Output from ls is no longer colored (I had no idea how much I relied on the
colored output until this happened!!)

I'm sure there are other problems I haven't found yet.  Uninstalling and
reinstalling console from Apt didn't fix anything.  I am wondering if there
is a configuration file somewhere that I can just delete and start over with
safely.  Also, if you would like me to file a bug report on this, just point
me to where, though I can't provide any more information than I've provided
here.

Thanks for any help you can give me
