Bug#547926: gnome-themes: application of themes causes window slowness, BG image and icon text screwups

[Mark Hedges]

Package: gnome-themes
Version: 2.26.2-1
Severity: normal


I recently upgraded to squeeze.  I'd never selected any theme, used
default theme.  I tried darklooks, but after coming back from suspend,
the text of icons was the wrong color, and sometimes flipped colors
on mouseover.  Also, iceweasel especially but other app windows too
are noticibly slow to respond to clicks, re-drawing, etc.  Even after
switching back to clearlooks I continue to have the same problems.
Often it is just the transparent gnome panels that do not draw right
after resume from suspend, but they redraw OK after un-hiding.  But
background images get screwed up - will attach screenshot.  The draw
problems are annoying but the worst thing is the browser slowness.
These were not problems before the first time I selected a theme.

How do I restore the default settings so no theme is applied?
