This bug is still present in Intrepid. About 50% of apps (including Firefox) revert to a basic GTK1 theme as a fallback because of errors in the gtkrc file for the Darklooks theme.

After comparing the Darklooks theme with the original Clearlooks theme on which it is based, the error is in the first line that defines the colour variables:

gtk_color_scheme = "fg_color:#E6E6E6\nbg_color:#555753\nbase_color:#2E3436\ntext_color:#D3D7CF\nselected_bg_color:#3F403D\nselected_fg_color:#7AA3CC\ntooltips_bg_color:#EDDE5C\ntooltips_fg_color:#000000"

There are TWO spelling errors in this line compared to the original Clearlooks which uses the singular tooltip_bg_color and tooltip_fg_color.

Removing the two Ss from tips fixes the problem, and given that Clearlooks is the reference design for Darklooks I suggest changing the top line to remain consistent across the family
