Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gtk2-engines
Radio and checkbox buttons on all clearlooks-related themes are rendered
rather horribly. The foreground color for "checked" seems to be almost
exactly the same color as the background. Only by hovering over and/or
focusing on the check or radio button can the state (checked or
unchecked) be seen (barely).
I suspect that this has something to do with a poor interaction with the
xserver display. This is on a Mac Mini using the nVidia display driver.
(The exactly same theme and font combination works perfectly on a non-
Apple laptop not using the nVidia driver.)
We seem to be forced to use a not-so-clear theme as an unsatisfactory
workaround.
