does on a Konsole. Is that what you are talking about? If it is, here is

I can't type anything in the konsole window (in KDE).  When I exit kde
by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F1 and type echo $PS1, I get output similar to what
you have posted above (PS1='\[\033[01;31m\]\u@\h \[\033[01;34m\]\w \$
\[\033[00m\]' ).  I don't recall exactly what my output is because the
only way I can get a command prompt is by exiting kde.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling konsole to no avail.

Regards,

Colleen
