[Scribus] why texts are all squares?

Hi,
I downloaded and compiled Scribus 1.1.1 on my Linux box.
I was following the tutorial
http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/docs/page1.html
to learn Scribus. But somehow I could not enter any text,
the textbox is always blank no matter what I type (I tried
to change colors). Every character from "Get Text" is
displayed as a hollow square. I'm sure this must be a
trivial problem somewhere in the configuration, but I have
struggled for one day with no results. Any help on getting
me started with using Scribus would be appreciated, thanks!
Regards,

p.s. The "documentation" link http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/documentation/
doesn't work now.
My system:

QT: x11-free-3.2.1 (tarball make)
Ghostscript: ghostscript-6.51-20 (rpm)
