I'm not in front of my F8 system now, but I'm looking at a CentOS.52 build at this moment. Well, when you right-click on the terminal you can adjust the look-and-feel settings. One thing that jumps out is the Keyboard setting which can be made to be set to one of Xterm, vt100 or linux console. The same menu gives you the option to set Kate's terminal to be the same as your regular desktop terminal settings by clicking on the "Use Konsole's settings" option. The Kate manual points out that Kate is just a copy of the KDE Konsole terminal application I'll try to changing the keyboard setting on my F8 system next monday. BTW -the CentOS.52 system has no problems whatsoever with the Kate terminal. > 'r & r'. use yum to remove and replace. > you may have a squirreled install. > > you never know until you try... I did look into the possibility of replacing the package but it's not an independent component. Kate is a part of the K Desktop Environment core files (kdebase.i386). I'm not sure I want to mess with the core files and brake something in an otherwise stable system. I appreciate your time, thanks for all the suggestions g. ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
