           Summary: bitmap font (terminus) causes too long konsole start
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: petr at scribus.info


Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

I used terminus font in previous KDE versions. But after smooth upgrade to
4.4.0 the Konsole started to take ages to open.

I tried to set various preferences for it and I discovered it's a bitmap font
issue.

If I use vector font (for example dejavu) konsole opens immediately. It takes
about 3-4 sec with terminus (HW: 8CPU, 12GB RAM, nvidia binary drivers from
suse 11.2 rpm)

I've found similar behavior in this forum:

P.S.: it looks like terminus font started to look ugly in kate/kwrite too...
but it's a different issue.
