Hi, a) The problem has nothing to do with KDE b) KDE can't solve the problem with GVIM (which is GTK+ based) c) xlsfonts won't help you here. d) Please fix your fonts.conf file in /etc/fonts e) Please fix your xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 f) GTK+ (GNOME) as well as Qt (KDE) use freetype2 for font rendering stuff. Only difference is that Qt doesn't support font kerning.
