Excellent suggestion, although I'm not sure where the evidence leads. No, I don't get that. The Ctrl-A is completely swallowed up, it seems.
On the laptop, where Ctrl-A works, yes, I do get a ^A when I type Ctrl-V Ctrl-A. But on the desktop, I don't. And of course, if I do Ctrl-V Ctrl-A Ctrl-V Ctrl-A I get ^V after the third keystroke. Ctrl-V Ctrl-E does give me ^E. As another data point, I get the same behaviour when running bash in an xterm window instead of konsole, so it's not strictly a konsole problem. But it doesn't happen when X isn't running. Is there someplace in my Xorg config I might check? Thanks for this insight!
