What happened to my KDE 3.5.3?
The fonts are "gone" sorta -- at least to the point that makes KDE unusable.
If I fire up a terminal, the window is black, but I can see that things
are happening, as the cursor will move. but no text shows. if i do an
'ls' for example, i can see something 'scrolling' as the bar on the
right moves, but no text is rendered. highlighting all the text in the
window will reveal red/blue/etc inverse areas which i assume are
directories, tarballs, etc...
my clock applet is 'blank', but if i roll over it, i see the time in the
bubble that pops up.
most menus are blank, but I can see the underscore of where the hotkey
would be. if I click on the menu, it 'blinks' very fast the text that
should be there.
this is the same for buttons. they show up until i roll the mouse onto
them, then the text vanishes but i see the underscore.
all the icons on my desktop are there, and the text under them is
'black' (like the shadow text), but the white text that used to be over
the black is gone.
firefox will show some text, then vanish, but if i drag/highlight all
the text on the page, it comes back.
Gnome works just fine -- in fact, that's how I'm typing this right now
since KDE is hosed.
I did an emerge update on friday and all seemed well.
i use an nVidia card and i purposefully did not do the xorg-7.1 as it
was a blocker with nVidia drivers.
gcc-3.4.5
xorg-7.0
nvidia-1.0.8762
kde-3.5.3
kde was working fine. i had rebooted and such after the upgrade from
3.5.2 to verify.
here are the last few things i emerged that could have any relevance:

I read my /var/log/portage-logs and didn't notice anything that needed
to be done? I also had done a revdep-rebuild but again nothing really
that should effect this (mutisync and a few other peripheral apps).

There is a bug with xorg 7.1 && nvidia drivers
[http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130292]. Check your xorg-server
&& xorg-x11 versions. Try to downgrade with this package.mask --
