Hi Thierry,

As for the applications which display the issue, Dolphin and VLC are the most notable ones, Firefox does not have this issue, for example.
Dolphin and Firefox I don't use, so I can't say.
With VLC I see no tofu box. You see them in filenames?
If so, were these files created on Linux or some other operating system? I remember having seen such things with chinese or russian file names, when bo font was available to render them.
I have quite a huge number of fonts on my machine (not that I really want them, but various software install them).
It's also not clear to me what sort of font is used by whom: trutype fonts are used by my wordprocessors, but in /usr/share/fonts there are also cMap, cmap, opentype, type1 and X11. I'd say display uses X11 but in my system I never tinkered with them. And they should not ne TDE related (in my understanding, which may be wrong!).
I have not re-read all this thread, but if the problem occurs in Q4OS + TDE, but not in Debian + TDE, then its either a Q4OS problem or linked to their implementation of TDE.
