Version: (using KDE KDE 3.0.9) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: gcc-2.96 Redhat standard gcc OS: Linux <URL: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-devel&m=103405662930278&w=2> Still present. Konqis textareas are very slow, but for example qt desiger is fast. Unset LC_CTYPE works, but is not a choice.
Not Konsole specific.
You do not need to unset LC-vars, the only locales affected are these with the "@euro"-aliases. If you try xx_XX.UTF-8 or xx_XX.ISO-8859-1 and choose it as your standard locale, there's no lag or slowdown, even with xx_XX.ISO-8859-15 everything is alright. The problem seems to deal with the @euro-aliases only.
Current qt-copy fixes the problem.
