I tried the version you compiled, and after opening enough documents (about 20), got it to do the same thing. It froze for about five minutes, then got better. Again, the other windows open were really slow, but after moving the about a bit returned to normal as well. I did get some errors in the console this time and have attached them in a file. One reason why my system could be slightly different than yours is that I upgraded my system from redhat 8.0 to redhat 9. Because of this, I check what versions of qt I had in /usr/lib and I have 2.3.1, 3.0.5, and 3.1. Let me know if any of this if cruft left over from the 8.0 install, and if it is , I will delete it and see how that affects things.
