ffi Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) Old users are painfully slow starting up KDE and other apps from KDE, GNOME is not affected neither are newly created users. When starting apps from konsole with ols users (not new users), I get this message first: Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/OTF Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/TTF Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic Invalid directory name /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc Edited May 28, 2006 by ffi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffi Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Well I deleted just about every .***server*** .X*** .font*** .***auth*** .***session*** and .***DCOP*** file from my home dir and that solved the problem, don´t have a clue which file was the actual culprit though, system seems faster than ever :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 it was most likely one of the font files, but it could have been something else (.xsession perhaps). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
