when I open Konsole from the bottom bar, then Konsole Terminal starts, but it has white text on a black background and I would like it to be black text on a white background (as it has been before). image konsole.png
when I open Terminal - Super User Mode, the text is way too small. image super_user_mode.png
if I open Terminal - Super User Mode first, I can no longer open Konsole, because when I click on the Konsole bottom bar icon, another window Terminal - Super User Mode starts. image double.png
1a. I can make a new profile with the colors as I want them to be, but I don’t know how to start it, and I don’t want to change the profile every time.
How can I start the profile I modified by default?
2a. I can enlarge the fonts (=ctrl+++++++), but I want the fonts already big enough in this profile and I can make a new profile, but I can’t make it the default profile.
How can I start the profile I modified by default?
There is a default Konsole profile for the “Root Shell” located in ‘/usr/share/konsole/’ – which is why you, as a normal user (and, as the user “root” also,) usually need to create a private copy of that Konsole profile.
The default user profile is “Built-in [Read-only]” – which is why a normal user has to create a new profile and set that profile to the default profile if, something else is needed …
I don’t understand what I should do. I created two new profiles and set the dot to default, but when I close the console and restart it, the same situation occurs again, i.e. the one set to default does not start.
Sure, I can switch to the new profile I made, but that’s not how I want this to work.
Opensuse leap 15.6 seems to work better…
I finally got the consoles working, but still not quite the way I’d like.
I copied the Root Shell.profile from the .kde directory because the settings there seemed to be ok. I do not understand why they were there and why the information was not retrieved from the share directory.
At the next patch or update to the “konsole-part” package, your customisations of the “Root Shell” profile will be lost.
Copy the “Root Shell” profile provided by the “konsole-part” package – forcibly re-install the package to restore the «supplied by the» distribution file – to ‘~/.local/share/konsole/’ and rename it – and then, make your local changes to that profile and, save your changes.
I must have a lot of old files in my directories because the oldest file was from 2014.
I have done the installation so that I copy the home directory to the external hard drive and after the new installation I copied the home directory back.
I didn’t understand your instructions again. Couldn’t the instructions be written in easier English? Of course, this is not your fault but my bad English.
I couldn’t get that command to go through.

If you type “rpm --query --whatpr” and than hit the Tab key, the “whatprovides” will automatically be completed.
If you then add “/usr/share/konsole/Roo” to the command and hit the Tab key again, the filename will be automatically completed.
Then hit the “Return” key and, the command will execute.
Everything in the “/usr/” directory tree is SYSTEM.
Same for everything in “/lib/” and “/bin/” and “/sbin/” and “/lib64/” …
Everything in those directories may be changed when the system is either patched or, updated.
The only SYSTEM directory where administrators are allowed to make site-specific modifications is “/etc/” – and then, only in specific “???.d/” sub-directories as defined by the system application’s “man” page.
If you were to setup a clean test user with a home directory containing only the files supplied in ‘/etc/skel/’ and then, if you logged into that new user with a KDE Plasma session, you would notice that, the ‘~/.kde/’ user directory is neither created nor used.
All user defined KDE Plasma Konsole profiles are stored in the user’s ‘~/.local/share/konsole/’ directory.
I have deleted old .directories/.files (eg .KDE), which I have apparently not used for years. I also cleared the .cache directory and give the command “Shut Down”.
Tumbleweed fully booted.
But what I want is that when I click on the bottom panel
1 “Terminal - Super User Model”, so ko. the program starts. This uses root password.
2 “Konsole”, then the respective program is started. No password needed.
And the aforementioned programs do not interfere with each other in any way.
