Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures.
At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!

Excuse me.. What do u want me to explain to you, it is this simple: i have just burn Junty alpha 5 in a cd, then i tried it in my pc, and i log out to see the new GDM login screen, but i met with a problem, when i go to options -> sessions, i was not able to see the sessions option as u can see in the screen shot, because font color is black (dark), the only way i can see them is by getting the mouse pointer over one of them as u can see in the screen shot, maybe by changing font color to white, this problem will be fixed.

Ok, thank you very much. I'm about to download the alpha5 to create a fresh install in a virtualbox environment. Can you tell me something about your environment?:

- On which architecture are you testing it?
- What kind of graphiccard is involved, which driver are you using?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. I have classified this bug as a bug in gdm.

Marking this one as confirmed, since it can be difficult to see the font on the dark background, depending on the monitor brightness.

And about this:
"Marking this one as confirmed, since it can be difficult to see the font on the dark background, depending on the monitor brightness."
Let me tell you that it is not because of monitor brughtness, because i can see anyother font in the login screen and in the options of it, besides it is the only one i can not see

The gtkrc theme isn't properly applied to the session menu. Parts of the Human GTK theme (system default) seem to be used.

Rename the directory '/usr/share/gdm/themes/Human/gtk-2.0' to disable the dark GTK theme.

fixed in gdm version 2.20.8-0ubuntu10: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/331445
