[XFree86] weird emacs problem

[Bruce Park]

I've been experiencing this weird emacs problem regarding X. I'm hoping that someone can help me to resolve this situation. Before I go on any further, I'm currently using version 4.1.0-16 in the debian distribution under KDE desktop.

Here is the normal pic:

The weird pic:

If you take a look at the weird pic, it seems like the height(of fonts) is double spaced. This happens right after another application is launched using X. An exmaple of this is when a Java applet is launched. Anytime I use emacs after this, emacs is distorted. There are other things that trigger this effect but I have not been able to find a perfect example besides the Java applet example.
I've noticed that this problem will go away when I re-login to the system.
The only thing that I've done to tweak X windows is by adding true type fonts and taking out xfonts-100dpi. Other than that, there's nothing that I've done.
If anyone could help or make a suggestion, it would be greatly appreciated.
