Version: 4.0 (using KDE 4.6.5) OS: Linux Hello, I'm seeing wrong search boxes color in Thunderbird/Icedove main window. It is the same backgound color as the menu (gray). It should be background text color (white). The same problem happens with the subject box in new message composition window. gtk2-engines-oxygen 1.1.0 is installed. I saw the same problem with 1.0. Regards, Laurent Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Just use gtk2-engines-oxygen and launch Thunderbird/Icedove Actual Results: Boxes have background menu color (gray) Expected Results: Boxes should have background text color (white)
Can't reproduce here with oxygen-gtk 1.1.0... See http://i.imgur.com/9GYT1.png Your problem might be because of interfering GTK settings files. Try searching for "*gtkrc*" in your $HOME.

Try removing ~/.kde/share/config/gtkrc-2.0
I have : ~/.gtkrc-2.0 ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde ~/.kde/share/config/gtkrc ~/.kde/share/config/gtkrc-2.0 ~/.gimp-2.6/gtkrc ~/.gtkrc-2.0 is a symlink to ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde I've attached the files (except gimp one...) I see this problem on my three computers. Laurent
I've removed ~/.kde/share/config/gtkrc-2.0 and restarted app but the problem remains.
What's your thunderbird version?
I'm currently using Icedove 3.1.11. I remember I also had the problem with 3.0 and gtk2-engines-oxygen 1.0. I've also tried Thunderbird 3.1 binaries from mozilla.org at this time but same problem. I don't have any problem with Iceweasel 3.6, 4, 5.
I've just tried with an Icedove blank profile. Same problem. Here is a screenshot : http://i.imgur.com/VsZke.jpg
As you can see, there are also other minor glitches such as the left side of drop-down lists.
Maybe the problem is in DE settings daemon... What if you start without DE at all? I.e. shut down kdm/gdm/etc., then "startx /usr/bin/xterm" , start window manager from there, and then the applications? Does the problem still remain?
I've done so. No improvement, no matter I launch window manager (kwin --replace) or not.
Well, ok. Could you recompile oxygen-gtk with OXYGEN_DEBUG set to 1 and give output of problematic app?
Created attachment 62964 [details] OXYGEN_DEBUG set to 1 Here it is.
The problem might be fixed in latest code, in fact. In earlier versions icedove was not recognized as a mozilla application, and shoud be now. Did you try with latest code from master, and/or 1.1 branch ? and if not, could you ?
I tried latest code from 1.1 branch and it is OK now :-) It also fixed drop-down lists. I suppose the following commits made it : Revision a10eca2e: Use single tag (isXul) for all known XUL applications, adding icedove and comp... Revision f52c1d55: added iceweasel, icecat, icedove, etc. as Mozilla applications. Thanks to all, Laurent
Well... looks like we should first of all ask users to check with latest development version...
