Triple-click-and-hold on a multi-line (ie: wrapped) row of text in the history followed by scrolling downwards results in loss of all but the last row of the multi-line text that was initially selected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start Konsole 2. set the size to 80x25 and font to Monospace, 9 point 3. emerge --info 4. scroll back to the start 5. triple-click-and-hold on the first line of output "Portage ...", which will almost certainly be multi-line (figure it out otherwise) 6. scroll back down so that all the output is selected 7. let go of your mouse button *** That's sufficient to create the bug, the next steps are to verify it only. 8. scroll back up to the top - do not disturb the selected text 9. see that only the second line of the multi-line row is selected 10. copy the selected text and paste it somewhere to verify Actual Results: 6.25-gentoo-r8 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.25-gentoo-r8 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.86GHz etc, etc Expected Results: Portage 2.1.4.5 (default/linux/x86/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.25-gentoo-r8 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.25-gentoo-r8 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.86GHz etc, etc This also happens on my ~amd64 system.

We can't do anything about this, try to upgrade to 3.5.10 if you haven't already, upstream stopped development of kde3 so closing
Turns out that this bug still exists in 4.3.0, so that's what I'm refocusing it on.
In that case report it into upstream bugzilla :] http://bugs.kde.org/ because they are the one supposed to write patches on feature requests :]
