kopete randomly displays a black text background.

this is what you have sent or what you get from other person?

We received a downstream report about this bug at https://launchpad.net/bugs/389222
Comment 5 Roman Jarosz 2009-07-27 17:30:52 UTC
Did it changed to black when you were using Kopete from KDE rc1 or later?
The "reset color & font" button in chat window should fix it
Comment 6 Daniel Hahler 2009-07-27 21:16:29 UTC
Yes, the "reset color & font" button fixed it for me (downstream report).
Comment 7 Matt Rogers 2009-09-06 05:30:54 UTC
KDE 4.3 is out now. Is this still a problem?
Comment 8 Roman Jarosz 2010-01-04 23:53:22 UTC
Didn't see this bug in a while so I'm closing this.
If you still see it with KDE 4.3, please reopen
Comment 9 Daniel Hahler 2010-01-25 20:08:53 UTC
I've not had this happen to me again, so closing as fixed seems appropriate.

However, something similar happened just now with the Microblogging widget in KDE 4.4RC2: Bug 224216
Comment 10 Daniel Hahler 2010-05-26 17:50:44 UTC
Re-opening.

This just happened to another user (reported in the Launchpad bug), using Kopete version 1.0.0, KDE version 4.4.2.

See https://launchpad.net/bugs/389222 - I am attaching his/her screenshot.
