--- Comment #8 from Jekyll Wu <adaptee at gmail.com> ---
OK, thanks for all added information. Now let me add basic analysis of the
problem.

1. You are using KDE 4.8.5.  That is an important clue which makes it much
easier to find one related commit:
http://commits.kde.org/konsole/a02f0dccb949c5d9747f66f477a3586f6df490f1 . 

That commit makes the assmuption that the "Add Bookmark" action has "Ctrl+B" as
its default shortcut (that is inherited from standard shortcuts and is
problematic for an shell running in terminal emulator), and tries to fix that
problem when appropriate instead of always(because the old way means users
can't effectively change the shortcut of that action ).

So version information is really important and helpful. Please always provide
it when reporting bugs.

2. You are using a localized KDE, as reflected in those screenshots. 
Screenshot in comment #4 shows that "Ctrl+D" is the default shortcut for the
"Add Bookmark" action. Since that default shortcut is (as mentioned above)
inherited from standard shortcuts, I suspect:

    * The default shortcut for "Add Bookmark" in konqueror is also "Ctrl+D".
    * Go to "System Settings -> Shortcuts and Gestures -> Standard Keyboard 
Shortcuts", search for "Add Bookmark", and its _active_ shortcut is also
"Ctrl+D" (but its default shortcut is Ctrl+B ?).  

If true, then the next question is why is it "Ctrl+D" instead of "Ctrl+B" as
expected ?

    * A result of localization ? I really don't think so, but I'm no expert of
localization.

    * Have you changed it manually before?

A side note: it is generally better to provide screenshots in English instead
of localized language. I even don't know which language/localization is in use
in those screenshots, not to mention understanding and trying to reproduce it.

I guess that is because Ubuntu uses ~/.kde instead of ~/.kde4 . But never mind,
I asked for those files to see whether "Ctrl+D" comes from your personal
customization of konsole itself. That is apparently not the case according to
those screenshots.
