Hi, I've got two machines with a SuSE 8.1 distribution installed. The distribution was shipped with KDE 3.0.3 and XFree 4.2.0. I've updated both machines with XFree 4.3.0 (rpms provided by SuSE) and KDE 3.1.1 (rpms privided by SuSE as well)... On bot boxes /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.fonts hung for ages, so that I had to terminate the fc-cache process manually. This resulted in no longer being able to login with KDM. The screen showed the usual Xfree background with the mouse cursor as watch-symbol and kdm_greeter took 99% CPU-load. I've solved this problem, too, by deleting the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/*/fonts.cache-1.gz files and running /sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.fonts again (this time without problems). Now I can log in again, but certain fonts have vanished: opening a konsole window brings up an empty window,for example, at least, when I use the default fonts (small, medium, large, huge...). The cursor moves when I type, so I suppose it's just a fonts problem... sax2 has no fonts either. Can anybody help me with this? Didi anyone solve the problem before? Cheers, Raimund
