Did a little more investigating. When I load a konsole I have a tab down the bottom for each session. To get another session I can click on the icon next to the tabs. If I hold the mouse buttion over this session, I get a list which includes a 'Linux session'. This should have the $TERM variable set correctly for you. -- We will "use our technology to enhance uncertainties abroad." George W.
