--- Comment #3 from Egmont Koblinger <egmont at gmail.com> ---
This is a typical symptom of control characters in your prompt not being
properly enclosed between \[ and \] (in PS1) or between 0x01 and 0x02 bytes (if
emitted via PROMPT_COMMAND).

Askubuntu and friends are full of this question, just one random example:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/251154/long-lines-overlap-in-bash-ps1-customized-prompt,
there's many more.

It's quite unlikely to be a problem with konsole.

(Just for the record, could you please try with a few other emulators, e.g.
xterm and gnome-terminal, and share the result with us?)
