Garbled interface text

Hi -- Downloaded latest Gimp for Mac (using El Capitan), and my interface looks completely garbled. Like fractal numbers. So as you might imagine, learning to use it will be a bit difficult (especially since I'm a tad math challenged :).

I tried changing the language, figured out which setting would be it and while I couldn't read which language is which, I tried a few (one of which was likely english, since it had the same fractals in the beginning for three different sequential languages).

I thought it might be an issue with the current release, so I also downloaded and installed the last 2.8 version, but it exhibited the same problems. I've rebooted my mac in between as well.

Any ideas? Thanks! Philo

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same problem!
