font preview broken?

[Glenn Holmer]

I'm seeing garbage when previewing fonts in both System Settings and
kfontview (a few pixel droppings on either side of the panel, nothing
readable). This is on two different machines, one with nouveau and one
with the proprietary Nvidia driver.

Anybody else? Workarounds?

Issue is tracked here,

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1208229
and (ubuntu reference)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-desktop/+bug/1437260

Seems indeed to only affect nvidia users (so far)

I don't see any upstream (bugs.kde.org) bugs yet, probably not a bad idea to 
file one.
