This happens after I scroll up/down then select something other than "All Widgets", and doesn't go away until I close the dialog. Anyone else notice this?

mine as well

Same problem...
When you click on install new widgets from internet, does it work? I can see the widget from kde-looks.org but can't install them.

I had same problem when I turned on sub-pixel rendering and set hinting to full in Font settings. Set those things to default values and problem will be solved.

I have the same issue and I didn't change any font configuration. Still where is that Font settings you're talking about?
Offline
System Settings -> General -> Look and feel -> Appearance -> Fonts
Then configure anti-aliasing

Thanks, unfortunetly that doesn't solve the issue. Try to serach for a widget and then select all, it goes blank :\

I ran into that problem as well, I tried to resize the window and it brought the list back with no problems.
I don't know what would cause that, but this is bit of a work around.

Reported: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162769
I think this has been fixed, as I'm using KDE 4.1 from branch SVN and this doesn't happen anymore.
So, this fix will be included in 4.1.1 to be released next month.

I think it was corrected with the last kdebase-runtime update. At least I never got the blankness ever again (still installing widgets doesn't work).

installing most widgets will not work because there would be compiling involved; simply downloading them through the hot new stuff interface won't work for some time.
1) go to kde-apps.org
2) select the plasmoid you want
3) download source
4) create PKGBUILD*
5) run makepkg*
6) install the created package*.
*) I always tend to install new software only through pacman packages, though this is not required to make it work; it's just a habit of mine.
Be aware that kde4 packages use cmake, and the "normal" PKGBUILD.proto won't work on them.

If only I knew how to make a PKGBUILD. I mean, I read the wiki and still...
Anyway, I tried to follow kde-look.org instalation instructions to compile the plasmoids but it doesn't work "Unknown CMake command "kde4_add_ui_files"." so if the PKGBUILD was to have these kind of cmake commands it would also fail.
