Description

Sometimes, when I start a KDE session where konsole instances are being restored, I find in one of the konsole tabs:

Warning: Could not start program '/bin/bash' with arguments '/bin/bash'.
Warning: No such file or directory
Warning: Could not start program '/bin/bash' with arguments '/bin/bash'.
Warning: No such file or directory

The problem is temporary. Other tabs are ok. I close the affected tab and open a new one without problems.

I still do get that error every now and again though. I then have to kill of a "kdeinit" process to get konsole working again. "ps ax | grep konsole" in xterm will show you the kdeinit process you need to kill.
