Slow start in KDE apps
after i installing libgdkxft, the kde programs wait too long to start, but when that are
running they functioning normal, only delay in start. It only occurs on kde apps.
Try this:....Find the path to libgdkxft and enter the complete path in your /etc/ld.so.conf file. This will make sure it is pre-loaded upon boot.
i uninstalled libgdkxtf, and the problem persist. KDE not work with gtk,
i think that libgdkxtf modifies some configuration or some fonts.
what libraries load a KDE app when it starts??, i run kdebuildsycoca and
it delay some seconds too.
i use debian and i have test running X as root, and as a user, i have run a
xterm and a kde or gnome session and the problem is the same
i found the issue
i found that the problem was the apps that using libxft.so, such KDE
or GNOME. I rebuild the font cache and the problem has solved.
i solve with dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig
putting it pre load is works for me. etc/ld.so.conf file
