Thanks to all who have responded to this. I solved it (I guess) by installing 3.0.1 last night I find it strange though that 3.0 ran flawlessly (as far as it goes) since the install, and yes I do have 2.2 installed as well. Then just one day due to a lockup, this happens. One question though: If I deleted my .kde, and .kderc files shouldn't it have worked as it did upon fresh install on my 8.1 box

I don't recall the specifics, but deleting the konsole icon and recreating will fix it. If you don't have 2.2.2 installed, then you won't have the problem. Check Mandrake's web site for more info.
