Salut folks,
after I did an upgrade from my SuSE 8.1 to 9.1 the kde is slower than before. There are times, when the system locks up for a few seconds...


The well running system was updated till kde 3.1.5 before (with partly self compiled components...)

When I start konquerer out of a shell I get this message, right before it starts showing the content:
couldn't open fontconfigs chosen font with Xft!!!
(some 20 times of this line... or more)
So it seems to me, that the problem is font-system related. Also, if I try to magnify the konqueror contents, the lockup (just for a couple of seconds) take place, some time - maybe, if it hit a fontsize, it had not displayed this session?


Deleting the ~/.fonts directory did not help. Even a newly created user showed this problem. Also fc-cache -f and SuSEconfig did not help.
I then had a look into kcontrol/Aystem Administration/Font Installer:
Could not start process Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Fehler beim Laden von "kio fonts"
translated: error while loading "kio fonts"
the shell says:
kcontrol: WARNING: KGenericFactory: instance requested but no instance
name passed to the constructor!
kcontrol: ERROR: ERROR 3: couldn't create slave : Unable to create
io-slave:
klauncher said: Fehler beim Laden von "kio_fonts"


when entering "Administartor Mode"
 it says, after some searching on the harddisk:
 The process for the fonts protocol died unexpectedly
the shell says:
 QLayout "unnamed" added to QVBox "m_body", which already has a layout
 kcmshell: WARNING: KGenericFactory: instance requested but no instance

 /opt/kde3/bin/kioslave: error while loading shared libraries:
 /opt/kde3/lib/kde3/kio_fonts.so: undefined symbol: FTC_Manager_New
So I guess, I have to compile (at least) some part of QT/KDE for myself?

Does anyone have a suggestion, where it would be best to start with?
Is it right to try to start with QT, as it is responsible for the fonts?
Is the font-installer a totally different story, that would not bring me forward?


Thanks for any hint
