Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  Some font package (maybe unofficial) doesn't run fc-cache after its installation or its removal

Can confirm that. KDM don't crash, but loads very slow on my system.

I also faced the similar problem with KDM after I upgraded to KDE 4.7.3-1. After I updated the font cache with "fc-cache -f", the problem got resolved. Surprisingly the whole KDE became more responsive. I think, some font package didn't update the cache after installation.

Yes, it does load very slow. I have to try updating the font cache.

Updating the font cache solved the problem.
Tanks Paul!
