Infuriating font issues with KDE 2.2



Hi,

I've just installed KDE 2.2 on my Sid system, but am getting some
bizarre and frustrating font problems

The first time I log on, everything is perfect. All my fonts look nice,
everything is working.KDE apps all detect my full range of fonts.

However, the next time I log on, KDE insists on using the awful courier
font for "general settings" - all my taskbar/menu/desktop is set to use
courier. Worse, all the KDE apps can then only see the four fixed width
fonts I have installed - they don't list all of my variable width fonts.
It's completely bizarre. If I delete my .kde directory, log on again,
the fonts are all fine. Everything looks fantastic. However, the next
time I log on, they've screwed up again... and I can't alter them in
Control Center - nothing happens.

It's driving me nuts! Why is it doing this? Why does it work perfectly
first time, then never again?!

Also, does anyone know what module char-major-226 is? I keep getting an
error from modprobe during boot up about it being unable to load it.

John.
