I said, it hangs! I didn't say that it is very slow. I think the correct word 
will be "crash" because when I log out even it makes XServer crash.(I am left 
now in console mode with "init 3').

I corrected this bug through reinstalling xfs. But then after installing M$ 
ttf fonts same thing happens again. Yes, kde uses those fonts very 
correctly(You can see it's vast effect on net browsing) but when I want to 
change fixed width fonts in kcontrol the problem starts(only fixed width 
fonts crashes system, not other fonts).
