Bug Description

Binary package hint: human-theme

The notification windows are white-on-white. This makes them unreadable. If you install the python-notify package you can create one with this test case.

$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Aug 6 2008, 09:17:42)
[GCC 4.3.1] on linux2

>>> import pynotify
>>> pynotify.init("Test App")
True
>>> pynotify.Notification("Test", "More Text").show()
True
>>> quit()

Thank you for reporting this bug, you filed it when Intrepid was still in development and the theme received a lot of fixes before Intrepid was released as stable. Can you please check to see if this problem still exists? Thanks in advance.

Hi

I am not sure if this is related but I have similar problems with notification windows in xubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) turning grey or white. I have also entered a topic in ubuntu forum on this before I saw this bug report.

Second image attached in this thread refers to installation process of eagle. I run this from terminal and terminal gives this output when notification window for install process is opened.

--------------
nnn@nnn:~/Downloads$ sudo ./eagle-lin-5.6.0.run
X Error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) 8
  Extension: 149 (RENDER)
  Minor opcode: 4 (RenderCreatePicture)
  Resource id: 0x26

------------------------

eagle-lin-5.6.0.run can be downloaded here http://cadsoft.de/download.htm
This also went perfectly running 9.04
