Well, it's thin evidence, but I reckon konq is incorrectly invoking
gedit with the "--new-document" argument. I don't use konq and do not
know where these invocations are configured - perhaps someone else (or
Google) can help you there.

If konq uses .desktop files (I think it does), you might post the output
of these commands:

grep -i exec /usr/share/applications/gedit.desktop
grep -i exec .local/share/applications/gedit.desktop

That second one may say "no such file" in which case don't bother
posting the output from that one :-)

Regards, K.
