I'm running 4.4-RC from 2 days ago, same versions of KDE.

I've only tried the logout/login sequence, same problem.

Mine just got stuck on a non-selectable item in the list of fonts
(ie, I couldn't select *ANY* font, clicking on the listbox produced nothing,
etc. etc.). The fonts that I previously entered were used though (Tahoma 9pt).

I only tried xlsfonts, which correctly showed all my fonts indeed.

Would be nice to have a solution to this problem.

dmesg, X conf., font.dir's etc. available on request.
