KDE 4.1 no text on task manager

Hi,

I installed KDE 4.1 release version from the kdesvn-portage overlay. Every works, except I have no text on the task manager for open windows. They are extremely wide, so I assume there should be text there, but all I get is an icon and a large black emptiness. I can't find any settings related to this, and when the active window is "glowing", it doesn't look like there is black-on-black text or anything. It's just blank.

EDIT: I just realized the clock is also blank.

Has anyone else got this problem? Any clues where I should look to enable/fix this? Thanks!

I also have no text in the "Add widgets" box...

I've tried deleting my ~/.kde4.1 directory, I've tried the latest KDE 4.2 weekly... same problem.

Am I missing some font? The KDE font adder shows I have 127 fonts on my system. All of the fonts show up in the font settings panel.

No text on taskbar happens when I'm using NX to login remotely, and there really is no text there. The text in the widgets box was white text on a white background and I'm not sure how to change the colors for just that window, everything else seems okay.
