Bug Description
(This is a regression on 11.04)
Whenever KWin dies, when it comes back, the fonts set are some default fonts ('Ubuntu', sizes 8 and 9). Then I need to reset all and everything especially on a high-resolution monitor because the display is ugly.
This should not happen; when KWin comes back it should always read the last user-defined settings. This is worse, since the System Settings do not apply to the Desktop fonts, except at reboot (877421).
Also, under consideration that the 'arbitrary KWin dies'-bug has been unresolved for some years, this is annoying. Until 11.04 this did not happen here.

Hi there!
Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https:/ /bugs.kde. org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.
Thanks!
