Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-netbook-remix-default-settings

In the default theme for UNR 9.10 some of the text on buttons are almost unreadable. If you open totem for instance and look at the button to the right where you can select between YouTube and BBC etc. Only when you select this button or hover your mouse over it, can you see the text clearly. I have installed Skype also, and found that this problem is even more severe for that application. Most of the menu entries looks like they are lost and only when you mouse-over them, can you see them.

This looks like a theme bug, nothing to do with the Design team.

This is what the Skype menu looks like. Text becomes visible as you mouse over items.

It sounds like a bug with the dust theme. No sure whether its a setting issue or if it's deeper than that. Investigating with Neil and Ken.

Skype, being a Qt app is going to be harder to take care of, I imagine. The problem with other apps can probably be fixed in the gtkrc. It is a bug in the Dust theme, not the -settings package.
