    SOLVED - Console schema not remembered?

    OS: HH (8.04)
    Desktop: KDE 3.5.9

    I start a Linux Console session. Click on Settings > Configure Konsole... > Schema and click on Transparent for Konsole, check the Set as default schema, Apply and OK. I exit the console and start a new one. The transparent schema is not being used, instead I get the basic white on black.

    The hidden file ~/.kde/share/apps/konsole/Transparent.schema exists and contains:
    Code:
    # schema for konsole autogenerated with the schema editor
    
    title Transparent Konsole
    
    transparency 0.35 0 0 0
    
    # foreground colors
    
    # note that the default background color is flagged
    # to become transparent when an image is present.
    
    # slot  transparent bold
    #   | red grn blu | |
    #   V V--color--V V V
    color 0 178 178 178 0 0 # 0 - Foreground Color

    What's in your ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc ?
    There should be a "schema=" line that points to the schema file you have selected.

      Thanks for the reply. The entry in the file does point to the schema I selected:
      schema=Transparent.schema
      Yet, as stated, the schema isn't being used when I start a console.

        Problem discovered and solved.

        Your reply got me to thinking, so I looked at the the konsolerc file again. There is an entry that shows:
        DefaultSession=linux.desktop
        This file exist in /usr/share/apps/konsole/
        Looking at that file there is an entry that shows:
        Schema=Linux.schema
        Changing that line to:
        Schema=Transparent.schema
        results in the transparent schema being used when I start a console session.

        Thank you.
