I would have one more issue and maybe you'll be able to help me:). I am using 
kubuntu 10.04 with kde 4.4.5.
Every time I want to change the system font and its size(I go to Settings- 
System Settings-Apperance-Fonts)  i push the button CHOOSE and then the fonts 
windows simply dissapears and if I try changing it again, it happens the same 
thing.

Maybe you know a soluttion to how can I make my font settings work.

Thanks
