Sorry, no such thing.
Please specify the exact details of where your problem lies.
BC Believe he means in konsole. What kind of laptop, what video drivers, what versions? I've got a Dell Studio 1745 which makes those changes okay.
Tom Ah yes, sorry. It is konsole. My laptop is a Dell Latitude D820, with a 1920x1200 res monitor, which is why things show up so small by default. In the configuration settings for KDE I set the fonts for all GUI apps to be larger so that I can see them. However on the terminal side of konsole I can't adjust anything.
George,
Are you trying to change the profile as ordinary user or as root?
Are you trying to change one of the default profiles?
Trying to change one of the default profiles as an ordinary user doesn't work because they are owned by root and not writable for ordinary users. These profiles are stored in directory "/usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole".
For an ordinary user, the best option is to create a new profile and change that.
Regards, Erwin
Well, the thing is, on my desktop I have changed the profile multiple times as an ordinary user without any problem. It is only on this installation on this laptop that it doesn't work. In the directory /usr/share/kde4/apps/konsole it has all the different color schemes listed. I don't need to change any of those color schemes. On the konsole menu when you go to the settings menu and go settings -> configure profiles -> edit (select the shell), and then click on the appearance tab, that is where you select one of the color schemes which is listed in the above directory. On my desktop I can freely change these color schemes and adjust the font size there, and it is no problem. On my laptop, no matter which color scheme I select, it does not apply the change, and it is always green on black with 9 pt font.
