Dolphin slow and lag (QFontEngine)

Hi all,

i've a problem with dolphin. It's slow and lag to charge file when i open a new folder.

If i try to open dolphin in terminal, this is the output:

Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QString)

The output continues indefinitely with this:

QFontEngine: Glyph neither outline nor bitmap format=0
load glyph failed err=8b face=0x17b9aa0, glyph=733

I try to search a solution but i've not found anything...

Any solution?

Thank everyone

Try again.

It looks like an ancient bug in new clothes:

I'm a bit afraid there's no definitive answer what you should do to fix it: the one above merely suggests that font configuration may be incorrect and/or affect the Qt font engine. (In a few older bug reports Bitstream Vera family was mentioned as the conflicting one.) What you can still try doing:

1. run sudo fc-cache -f to rebuild the font cache and make your fonts accessible for applications,

2. check your local fontconfig configuration, if you're using one ($HOME/.config/fontconfig) and disable it for testing purposes,

3. check your KDE control panel, section 'Fonts' and see if font families you set there are real files, not ghosts (i.e. fonts you removed but forgot to update your config files/application settings),

4. remove KDE cache files, log out and back in, and check if the error messages persist.

Finally, keep track of the pretty recent bug report because the thing might need a touch of coder's hand.
