Konsole doesn't display full output anymore

General system Newbie

Hello World,

I don’t know how, when, or why this happened but the konsole… forgets? what has happened very fast.
It’s killing me, for example I need to run lutris -d to diagnose some stuff but I can’t get/save the full output anymore!: :sob:

I even tried changing the konsole settings and increasing the memory limit to 1024mb figuring maybe it was running out too fast or something… Didn’t help and nothing else jumps out at me from looking at the settings.

If I’m not explaining it clearly enough here’s a short video with my issue.

Suggestions please? Thank you.

Did you try setting scrollback to unlimited in profile-> edit → scrolling?

you could always pipe this through something like less to get the full output and to read at your convenience

lutris -d | less

Oh, ok, creating a new profile(I never bothered to do this, was just using the default) and setting scrolling to unlimited does indeed seem to work.
Thank you very much mate! :grin: :hugs:

Ok @thefrog , googled what less is, seems interesting. I’ll keep it in my back pocket in case I ever need it, thank you. :wink:

Yeah less might work but with some commands it doesn’t

Another option is to pipe the output to a file using tee, then it will go to the console and a file that you can look at with your favorite editor.

Something like
lutris -d | tee output.txt
