AppCombat v21 TextAppearance on Gingerbread with DarkActionBar

i recently updated the appcombat library to integrate the material design. But there is an issue with the style "Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar", because if i use this style and let my TextView like:

android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall

the whole text appears invisible (or just white) on a white background

If a use the "Theme.AppCompat.Light" theme, everything is working fine. This issue i have only on Devices running android 2.3.*

Samples: (Don't have enough reputation to post images, so you need to click)

DarkActionBar:

Light:

Any suggestions guys? Anyone tried the new appcombat library with Gingerbread?

Solution

Obviously i found out that i need to use material text appeareance, for instance:

android:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body1"
