How to setup custom keyboard shortcut to launch terminal on KUbuntu?

PS. I have tried setting up shortcut that would issue xterm command, but that shows raw terminal, that looks a lot differently from the one that can be opened from the menu.

Thanks!

I didn't have CTRL+ALT+T by default after a fresh install of Kubuntu 12.04

Here's how I assigned in.. right-click the Kickoff Application launcher icon -> Edit Applications -> System -> Konsole -> Advanced Tab -> Current Shortcut Key

Ctrl+Alt+t opens a konsole window.

I have Kubuntu and this doesn't work for me. – Mien Nov 7 '12 at 13:04

The one from the menu is called "Konsole" so use whatever keybinding you have for the quick launcher and then type Konsole and it will come up as a choice and you are good to go.
