Default theme doesn't return after toggling high contrast option

[Sam Brightman]

Binary package hint: gdm

I tried the high contrast accessibility option straight after upgrade (i.e. before restricted graphics driver installation) at gdm login screen. The theme correctly changed from dark (in particular, black bar at bottom edge) to a high contrast version (white bar). However, immediately disabling the option again did not return the original theme. A third theme, somehow in between the two, was used. Several more toggles and open/closes of the accessibility options did not help. Restarting gdm or rebooting did not help. The link below suggested reinstalling gdm, which did work.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance and sorry for the late response.
